Meteorite falling over Russia AMAZING New HQ Footage Compilation 

On 15 February 2013, an object entered Earth’s atmosphere over Russia at approximately 09.25 YEKT (03.25 UTC), becoming a fireball. Moving at a speed of 15 km/s to 18 km/s (34000 mph to 40000 mph), it passed over the southern Ural region and exploded over Chelyabinsk Oblast. The object’s air burst occurred at an altitude between 15 and 25 km (9.3 and 16 mi) above the ground. The total energy released was equivalent to nearly 500 kilotons of TNT, which would make it 20-30 times more powerful than the atomic bombs detonated at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Being significantly smaller than objects that are tracked through current efforts by space object scientists, the meteor was not detected before atmospheric entry.
