[meteorite-list] On Now! - Sodom & Gomorrah on Science Channel

[Meteorites USA]

Don't know, they were supposed to be parts of the asteroid. But maybe 
they were flaming bits of terrestrial material blasted up into the 
atmosphere by the explosion. Maybe it was the imagination of a good 3D 
animation artist.

I'm not saying it's correct. They compared Tunguska to this event and 
there's a general consensus that that event dropped no meteorites that 
we know of. Of course the celestial body that caused the Tunguska event 
wasn't near a mile wide either.

Who knows? but it may be plausible IF their theory is correct about them 
finding the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah earlier in the show. Has the 
cities been found? Supposedly the mass grave they found on the outskirts 
of the small town is evidence of it. I think the number of dead in the 
area was 20,000?

Regards,
Eric
