I read somewhere one fireball-sized meteor falls every month on average.
With so many cams everywhere these days they are recorded more often, which is really cool. I think people will start to realize now that the Earth is like a car driving behind a truck loaded with gravel --you really value having a windshield between the exterior medium and you. |
