  If you haven't already seen today's Spaceweather page, it says the 
following:>> TENNESSEE FIREBALL: Space rocks have landed in Tennessee. 
That's the conclusion of researchers who recorded a brilliant fireball 
streaking over the Smoky Mountain state on Wednesday evening. Bill 
Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office reports: "On April 6th at 
8:21:57 CDT, NASA all-sky meteor cameras detected a very bright 
fireball moving north across the state of Tennessee. First detected 52 
miles above the Arnold Air Force base near Tullahoma, the meteor was 
brighter than crescent Moon and was approximately 2 feet in diameter, 
with a weight of 200 lbs. It was last recorded 30 miles above the town 
of Woodbury, Tennessee, moving at a speed of approximately 9 miles per 
second (32,400 mph)." Cooke continues: "The NASA Meteoroid Environment 
Office has reasonable confidence that some fraction of this meteor 
survived to the ground as one or more meteorites. Calculations are 
underway to determine the general impact location, which may lie close 
to the>  Kentucky border.">>   Any of our great radar-wonder-wizards 
working on this one yet???>>   Best wishes,>   Robert Woolard>>>>>>>>
