Hey I just got this email from spaceweather. Thought I'd share it 'cause it was an interesting read.
INDONESIAN ASTEROID: Earlier this month, with no warning, a ~10-meter wide asteroid hit Earth's atmosphere above Indonesia and exploded. The
break-up was so powerful, it triggered nuclear test ban sensors thousands of kilometers away. A just-released analysis of infrasound data shows that
the asteroid detonated with an energy equivalent of about 50 kton of TNT, similar to a small atomic bomb. This significant impact has received
relatively little attention in Western press...

This seems like a pretty significant event to me. Not even a word spoken about it in any media source I've payed attention to lately. Anyhow thought
it was kinda interesting.

I am in Canada, and i saw a huge red light in the sky, almost like an explosion, earlier, not sure what day, but within the past week for sure.
