>>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.<<
