Till that near earth asteroid passes by.  In the mean time, there is speculation that this may be related to it.  I hope not! lol

Notice the huge sonic boom that causes all the glass breaking, then the multiple smaller thuds as the broken up pieces of the meteorite are hitting the ground.

Heh, and some dumb TW** at work tried to argue that "Russian news" was saying that nothing impacted.  Flaming Lib and O' supporter wouldn't you know it...

Badass that their air defenses took the thing out though.  Wonder if it could be a smokescreen for something else tho... nothing to see here, move along... lol

Hadn't read that it had been intercepted by missiles before, interesting. Pretty impressive of the Russkies to hit something moving at around 67,000 mph. Surely we have the ability to do that also?  :o
