The BBC have got hold of some good footage as well:

Saw something on the BBC news this morning. It was about an Olympic swimming pool sized meteor passing within our own satellite field at some point. Is this one and the same?

That one will be at its closest to the Earth at about 7:30pm tonight.

Amazing.
I was hoping for some Russian expletives! People swearing in a foreign language always cracks me up

I kinda hope this is the first of maybe 3 or 4 hundred such minor impacts. Call it a cloud of debris around this larger one. The 50m one travels past but loads of its one meter buddies are not so lucky.
Not that I want anyone to be hurt but it might just shake up these sleepy govenments and populations in slavery to a wider universe. One we would do well to show a united front to.
