[QUOTE="gtsjeff, post: 24254, member: 975"] Last night i was driving home to canberra from sydney and as i passed Lake George a meteorite flashed over the car and burnt up about 200 meters away in the paddock . Half a second later there was a popping sound (maybe sonic boom or thud from hitting the ground) at 110kph its a bit of guess work :) It was cool to see at such close proximity and im wondering whether i should go for a walk with the detector next weekend . I looked for a glow in the paddock as it was so dark but the burning stopped before it hit the ground so there may be nothing there at all. [/QUOTE]
