meteor

A meteor streaked across Russia last Friday, igniting the sky with an ethereal explosion of light.

Astrophysicists say it was a bolide, or a meteor that explodes in the air.

Some industrious Chelyabinsk citizen has already offered to sell a piece of the meteor for a souvenir.

The idea had a short but powerful resonance: why did the meteor explode above ground, people wondered?

This RT video shows an office getting its window blown out by the shockwave from the meteor.

But it was all swift as a passing meteor, and when I looked a second time his face was normal and he was looking among the trees.

And darned if each meteor didn't strike dead center of each plant network.

Yesterday morning, about an hour before sunrise, a bright meteor was seen in the south-west.

Unfortunately 'Meteor' and 'Iverna' were not competing, the former having damaged her gaff.

The salons held beautifully-dressed women, distinguished-looking men, lying about as the meteor's shock had hurled them.
