Dear all,

I am sending you the information about the results on
the EN060402 bolide which was observed by many people
over a large territory of Central Europe.
As you can read below, it was a really exceptional
case.

The April 6, 2002 fireball

Finally, from the perfect similarity of both
heliocentric orbits we can predicate, that both bodies
had also the same composition and therefore we can
expect that meteorites produced by the April 6
fireball are H5 ordinary chondrites.

WOW!

In our lifetime, few people will have the opportunity
to do what Dr. Spurny and his colleagues have just
accomplished.
