"A 500-pound space rock about two feet in diameter entered the Earth's
atmosphere outside of Pittsburgh last night, according to NASA. The
object, detected by three NASA meteor cameras, was moving at a speed
of 45,000 miles per hour. Visibility was lost at an altitude of 13
miles, but the space agency speculates that fragments, or meteorites,
might be found on the ground east of Kittanning, PA. NASA posted this
animation from the meteor's perspective showing its trajectory as it
raced towards western Pennsylvania."...
