The Indian government and scientists seem to be determined towards
fear-mongering about meteorite falls. First it was the "risk of radioactivity"
from the fall a month or so ago, and now this. If that nuclear power plant is
at risk of exploding or releasing radioactive waste because it was hit with 6.8
kilograms of iron hitting at terminal velocity, then the Indians have a heck of
a lot more to worry about than meteorites.
