>>As the meteorite entered the upper atmosphere it broke into 3 pieces at
first they seperated in a line but when the forward most piece hit the more
solid air is slowed rapidly leaving a wake of thinner air behind it. This
caused the second piece to catch up to the first and impact with it
knocking it down. When the third piece caught up with the second it glanced off at
about a 60 degree angle upward and went back into space. The 2nd piece
also continued on in space. Only the first piece fell to earth.<<
