So, apparently, the Earth got hit by a meteoroid.

Specifically, at 02:46 UTC October 7th (corresponding to 9:46 PM October 6th for me, in Central Daylight Time), a meteoroid two to five meters in diameter exploded over the Nubian Desert in northern Sudan, causing a fireball equivalent to about 1-2 kilotons of TNT.

Alright, [livejournal.com profile] xuincherguixe, fess up...this was your doing, wasn't it?

No kidding.

Also noteworthy: a rock only a few meters in diameter created a kiloton fireball. Nature can be a mean mother.
