Talk:Sylacauga (meteorite)

Fork

I forked the article:

in Hodges meteorite I left everything about the fragment that hits Mrs Hodges and the consequences of this event
in Sylacauga (meteorite) I put everything about the meteorite fall from a scientifical viewpoint

In my opinion this is the best solution. Basilicofresco (talk) 10:35, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not the only one

There is a second known instance of a meteor striking a human. A Ugandan boy was hit with a 3 gram piece of a meteor in the Mbale strike. I've found a number of links to it, some of them on college astronomy sites.

Here's one: http://astro.wsu.edu/worthey/astro/html/im-meteor/strikes.html

I'm going to delete / modify the comment in the article about the only one, hearing no objections here. Dictouray (talk) 17:54, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
