Yesterday DH and my dad were driving home from the city and said that the sky totally lit up like sheet lightning, but it's winter now so it was kinda odd...today we found out that it was actually a meteorite hitting earth somewhere nearish here...the reports are varying but it could be anywhere from 1-3 hours from here.

Talk about CRAZY! I would think that they'd have known it was coming, lol...
 
on the news from this morning they said they believe it landed somewhere between lloyd and melfort, sk.. but i don't think they have located it yet. i think if someone was hurt or if it caused damage they would have said? not sure though
 
Whoa....that video is amazing! I never heard about it till now and I'm in Canada....LOL Guess I should turn on the news more often! :D
 
they said it was only the size of a grapefruit, that's not really what they look for, KWIM?

Did you know shooting stars are only the size of grains of sand?

Yup, 6 hours of astronomy on Tuesdays LMAO
 
That really cool! Although I hope no one was near where it hit!!! We actually have a few meteorites. One that we found on our mining claim and was confirmed by UC Davis and a few others from different countries that we have collected over the years.
 
How cool is it that people are talking about it here! lol, I live not too far from it all and my neighbors have all been talking about it... it's been all over our local radio station.... I of course missed it cause I was busy in the kitchen working on a hybrid project! LMAO!

Lloydminster?

Yeah, you'd think if anyone was hurt, we'd know about it by now.
 
Wow! that video was amazing! If that was only the size of a grapefruit I shudder to think what it would be like if it was bigger!
