Given the past track record <DIV></DIV>>of such stories, I wouldn't quite be at the point of booking <DIV></DIV>>a flight to Chicago based on this image. I admit that <DIV></DIV>>the bolide story sounds better than usual, but I temper <DIV></DIV>>that enthusiasm with the knowledge that it occurred around <DIV></DIV>>midnight, which is the worst time for a meteoroid in terms <DIV></DIV>>of surviving atmospheric passage. --Rob <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>______________________________________________ <DIV></DIV>>Meteorite-list mailing list <DIV></DIV>>Meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com <DIV></DIV>>http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Tired of spam?
