I don't know why no one here its talking about this in this site yet  the Impact of the russian meteor this morning


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9EgDo7KJdk

I thought for few hours that this had to do with the Asteoid DA14 (I though its was a piece)which is and Hour away from being very close to our earth even closer than our stationary satelites ,many thing it will cause interference among us , TV GPS etc
but this has nothing to do with this, the Meteor had a very diferent trajectory from DA14
more info here

They say most of the damage to windows was caused by a sonic boom. Many of those windows were not only broken but the window frames were torn from the openings. More like a shock wave would do. I find that interesting..  8-)

I've seen few comments in TV and intenet that the meteor weight 10000 tons (ten thousand tons) , I personally doubt of this information ,I am sure they mean 10 tons and still would be too large mass
