Ha! I was expecting a Decepticon to pop out of that hole. Or maybe that was
the lost piece of Allspark from the last movie. Too bad, as I have strong
ties to Latvia and would love for there to be a new Latvian meteorite. I
mean, it has been nearly 120 years since the last one.

Ok,

Flaming meteorite "after" impact? Really? Waiting for Superman to come
crawling out of the hole.

Didn't I ready somewhere just recently that a man picked up a piece of
space debris (England I think) a few seconds after it impacted his house
and it was hot to the touch? And that was a piece the size of a football.

Any thoughts on whether this Latvia "meteorite impact" is real or not?

Real or Fake? What's your take?

Regards,
Eric
