Thank goodness it was nothing. But some day, without a doubt we could get smacked. Here is what I got after searching my network of fellow sky
watchers.

Here's a video of the optical tracking in space.

Here's a report:
The following potentially confirming report comes from Jacob Kuiper, General Aviation meteorologist at the National Weather Service in the
Netherlands: "Half an hour before the predicted impact of asteroid 2008 TC3, I informed an official of Air-France-KLM at Amsterdam airport about the
possibility that crews of their airliners in the vicinity of impact would have a chance to see a fireball. And it was a success! I have received
confirmation that a KLM airliner, roughly 750 nautical miles southwest of the predicted atmospheric impact position, has observed a short flash just
before the expected impact time 0246 UTC. Because of the distance it was not a very large phenomenon, but still a confirmation that some bright meteor
has been seen in the predicted direction. Projected on an infrared satellite-image of Meteosat-7 of 0300 UTC, I have indicated the position of the
plane (+) and the predicted impact area in Sudan (0)."
And:
MOSCOW, October 7 (RIA Novosti) - NASA said Tuesday that its scientists had calculated a meteorite's trajectory and tracked its entry into
Earth's atmosphere for the first time in the history of space exploration. The 2-meter meteorite entered the atmosphere over Sudan at about 02:46
GMT Tuesday and broke into fiery fragments seconds later. "We estimate objects this size enter Earth's atmosphere once every few months," said Don
Yeomans of the Near-Earth Object Office at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. "The unique aspect of this event is that it is
the first time we have observed an impacting object during its final approach." The small meteorite, designated 2008 TC3, was first spotted by the
Mount Lemon telescope of the NASA-funded Catalina Sky Survey early Monday. Its trajectory calculations were made under the Near Earth Object
Observation Program, which plots the orbits of space objects to determine if they could be hazardous to the Earth.
No accounts of sonic boom or flashes, but then most don't report such. Especially in the middel of the Sudan. Maybe later though. My network is
watching for anything.
It looks like it was a rocky asteroid, junk essentially and leftovers from the formation solar system or similar. If it was solid Nickle Iron or
otherwise dense material, it might have made a better show (ie. 1 Kiloton blast) as all the material expressed it's energy all at once. But the Sudan
is sparsely populated and not many with telescopes or internet and phones to report with for that matter.
This happens many times a year. SAC (Strategic Air Command) and other defense systems see this kind of event all the time. They need to distinguish
between asteroids and nuclear bursts or a breach of secure air space. Many times in the last few decades we have been on alert for meteors hitting
over land and sea being mistaken for a nuclear event. Some of the asteroids make it to the ground. You have seen those going through rofs, cars and
making dents in the ground in the news likely.
So far we've been very lucky. That will someday change. Not soon I hope.
So what is all the stuff coming through psychics dreams??
In particle physics they've shown you can know a particles direction, but not it's speed or vice-versa.
Heisenberg Uncertainty Principal is likely in action here.
Maybe the prediction of the UFO on the 14th is only right for the date, and the other psychics visions for a nuclear exchange this morning where an
asteroid for the 14th. Or, whatever. You cannot know the future, just the "potentials".
So a friend sent this:
Richard Boylan Warns of Nov. 15 Asteroid Strike 07-Aug-2008 Dr. Richard Boylan has produced a report saying that a large asteroid will hit the
North Atlantic between 2:30 and 3:00 PM on November 15. As is our custom, we are recording this prediction, and, assuming we are still here on
November 16, will report on the outcome. As 2012 nears, we can expect more of these apocalyptic predictions. Dr. Boylan has stated in his report,
"There is an asteroid headed on a collision course with earth. It is 8/10th of a mile long and 6/10th of a mile wide. On its current course, it is
due to impact in the North Atlantic this year at about 2:30-- 3:00 PM EDT on November 15, 2008." He cites as his source the remote viewing results of
a Native American friend, based on information from "the Zeta and other Star Visitors." It has long been our practice to document such predictions
and report on their accuracy after the date of the prediction has passed. Also, Whitley is talking about the upsurge of warnings:
Unknown Country
It may be that this upsurge of warnings is precognition of the novelty spike in the Time Wave Zero calculation. Who knows what will go on?
Then there is the
Web Bot EGG and other predictive
techniques.
It seems the best we have to put a pinhole in a question is a shotgun.
