Global Warming is causing all these Meteors.

By my math, 9071 kg at 14752 m s-1 should be 1.97 TJ of kinetic energy, or about 471 tons HE equivalent using wiki's 4.184 GJ ton-1 conversion. Or about 1/50 of a hiroshima - or 1/19000 of a B53.

Fascinating.

I can only imagine what the one that took out the dinosaurs looked like.

the next time, I hope the Moon is there to "take one for the team". It owes us for being created by one huge-ass meteor....

The theory is that it vaporized on impact
