And no, this is NOT the asteroid which is passing along tomorrow night... This is a large meteorite that went ka boom and broke a lot of windows.

NASA says this fireball meteor shower doesn't have anything to do with the little asteroid that is swinging past us tomorrow night.

I watched those videos already (they are being posted everywhere). That is some crazy shit right there. I love the digital age

One report said it was shot down but from what I saw on the video, it seems more likely it burnt up.

At least Tunguska avoided it this time.

Imagine the fun had the impact been in a major city. . .

That's just negative thinking. If it hit a military installation in Iran I'd be fine with that.

Too bad it didn't hit St. Petersburg back then. The Russians would be better off today.
