I'm an updated model of that.

Primitive from your end maybe.

One down.

Quote..A suspected meteor shower spotted in the skies above Northern Ireland was probably space junk, experts have said.unquote.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-19683728

Probably?

Quote..Dr Tim O'Brien, associate director of the Jodrell Bank Observatory, said the lights could have been from a bigger chunk of something that burned out.unquote.

Genius.

But what was it?

Now that's the interesting question. How fortunate we sent so much crap up there that something is always falling down, fortunate and convenient.

Perhaps you don't have the need to know. It did look like a satellite or other piece of hardware breaking up.

You might find this site interesting or terrifying:

I definitely don't have a need to know, particularly officially! Thanks I will check out your link.

Didn't see it, but saw a hell of a sunrise this morning at 6.30. The whole eastern sky was raspberry coloured.

Portents of war in the East?

400 people reported injured, mainly by breaking glass, due to a sonic boom caused by a massive meteor shower in the Urals.

There should be photos around.

A very big meteor hopefully passing us today, although RTE news this morning said it was "heading for earth."

Maybe the "very big meteor heading for Earth" arrived a little sooner than expected?
there are a few videos on youtube

A bit of a damp squib so far.

I am still hoping a large meteor or asteroid smashes up our civilisation, forcing us to revert to a caveman existence amid the rubble of our cities.

Me too, got it all planned. Projectile weaponry, renewable energies, independent comms will be crucial. Will need to procure myself the willing thighs of as many females as possible in order to populate the new world.

Not if you are in Chelnyabinsk. I just hope the Orthodox cathedral there was not hit. It is a stunning building.
