Hello Listers
I found some info on the fall and here is some stats...
vel 667.2 km/s beg 135.8 km end 40.8 km
Now could a meteorite come from the Vel speed? I mean thats really fast
667.2km, or that could be a mistake, which I think it is? With the
meteor ending at 40km there is a possibility there could be some stones
on the ground. And after looking at the video I could see the meteor for
around 4 seconds and at the end the meteor got brighter.
more stats below...
