Well...
About how many craters caused by stonefalls (where fragments were left) do
we know?
I read 30 meters diameter....
Largest stone chunk we have is Jilin with 1.7tonnes - made a hole with a
diameter of 2m - 6m deep.
Kunya-Urgench with roughly 1 tonne made pit - 6m wide, 4m deep.
Norton County?
And here we should have an explosion funnel of 30 meters caused by a
chondrite??
Very unusual, I'd say.
My theory: the meteorite was a "hammer" and hit a Peruvian Taliban.
