A meteor caught on Tape over Texas on Sunday February 15, 2009
Military says not related to Satellite collision last week. Any reports if this object made it to the ground??? I wonder how many times this happens over a year???

Southwestern Egypt is pretty remote from early dynastic Egypt, even if the impact was only 5000 years ago. That's a fairly small crater too - a few tens of kilotons? I know that the climate was wetter back then, but I doubt this was seen by more than a few nomadic herders.
What a sight though (as long as you were a good few klicks away! ) P |
