Just the Facts?: Meteor Blast Largest Since Tunguska — Woman Invents Ghost — Lab Rats ‘Acquire Sixth Sense’

Russia meteor blast largest since Tunguska

A meteor 15 meters across flared through the skies over Russia’s Chelyabinsk region early Friday, triggering an atomic bomb-sized shock wave that injured nearly a thousand people, blew out windows and caused some Russians to fear the end of the world.

It was the largest reported fireball since the Tunguska event in 1908 – an asteroid that flattened millions of trees over a wide area in Siberia – according to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

Multiple amateur videos posted online showed the meteor’s flaring arc – called a bolide by scientists – as it crossed the western Siberia sky. Others from the scene included the sound of a loud boom, followed by a cacophony of car alarms. One video showed the hurried evacuation of an office building in Chelyabinsk.

“There was panic. People had no idea what was happening. Everyone was going around to people’s houses to check if they were OK,” Chelyabinsk resident Sergey Hametov told The Associated Press. “We saw a big burst of light then went outside to see what it was and we heard a really loud thundering sound.”
Another resident described the meteorite’s “flash.”

“I was standing at a bus stop, seeing off my girlfriend,” Andrei, a local resident who did not give his second name, told Reuters. “Then there was a flash and I saw a trail of smoke across the sky and felt a shock wave that smashed windows.”
