A huge fireball exploded over the skies of central Spain, which left astronomers stunned. Meteorite Research recorded the fireball on their detection system when it entered the Earth’s atmosphere on Saturday. The fragment from a meteorite was traveling at a speed 75,000 kph before burning out.

If readers recall this was originally reported on last week:
Between the 12th and 13th of April a 31-69 meter wide asteroid (2010 GM23) will make a pass at earth. On February 15, 2013 a meteor blast over Russia caused over $33 million in property damage and injured over 1,200 people. The Chelyabinsk meteor had a nuclear like intensity and was the largest meteor blast since 1908. Residents were obviously panicked as the impact of a 50 foot wide, 7,000-10,000 ton asteroid traveling at 40,000 MPH exploded, releasing energy of more than 10 times the atom bombs over Japan at the end of World War Two.
