There was a BIG, BRIGHT fireball a few days ago (April 14) over the Midwest, mainly Wisconsin; even caused an audible sonic boom. Many cameras, of which there seem to be more and more, got pictures and videos of the fireball. The question always is: was it big enough for parts of it to survive fiery destruction and make landfall.
Apparently so; a farmer had a piece of it (probably) hit his barn. (Article includes a picture of the space invader.)
While this one was relatively small, they won't all be; it makes going to an asteroid make a lot of sense (how timely is that???), to see if we can a) get there, and b) change the trajectory of one if necessary.
