Where is the link to that statement?
2. How frequently do fireballs occur?
Several thousand meteors of fireball magnitude occur in the Earth’s atmosphere each day. The vast majority of these, however, occur over the oceans and uninhabited regions, and a good many are masked by daylight. Those that occur at night also stand little chance of being detected due to the relatively low numbers of persons out to notice them.

Ok...i guess.
Just, there might be a rise in videos and such as earth is covered with "Go Pro's" by now but i see no data on a rise in reported fireballs, 100 tons of debri from space enters earth atmosphere every year, some of it is bound to be seen or filmed and thats pretty much it.
BTW, it's not the government or the MSM who keeps track of it, so why are you waiting for them to report about it?

Yes, it is another fireball, and yes we are getting more of them.
I guess I am just one of those types who can rely on their own judgement from observation of evidence, and not have to wait for the MSM or government to tell me something before I recognize it as being true. Just like you will never hear definitively on the MSM or from the government that there was a huge cover-up surrounding the execution of JFK, I have looked at all the evidence and know that to be the case.

Wow! Amazing footage!
I took this quick screen grab and uploaded it to ATS ...
It lit up the night sky enough to highlight the surrounding residential blocks!
It looks similar to the previous Russian meteor event.
The video should help in locating any fragments and I wonder if the forensic analysis can confirm whether this meteorite was from the same larger body as the previous meteorite

You won't find it. There is no link be cause that is an opinion. Uninformed at that. We are not getting more of these. They happen every single day day in and day out . We see them at night and call them shooting stars.
A fireball is an unusually large and bright meteor. To be considered a fireball, the meteor must be at least as bright as Venus. This exceptional brightness is usually a result of a large meteoroid - possibly a few meters in diameter upon entering Earth's atmosphere. When fireballs occur over populated areas the can generate a large amount of attention.
Some fireballs produce an audible noise, some shed smaller meteors, some are accompanied by sonic booms and some leave a trail that remains visible for several minutes after passing. The large size of fireball meteoroids give them a much higher chance of surviving their fall through the atmosphere and striking Earth's surface.
Meteors are most often seen as a very brief streak of light in the night sky. They typically occur and disappear so quickly that you wonder if you actually saw them. These streaks of light are commonly called “shooting stars” or “falling stars”.

What do you mean?
The same thing you refer to as "falling stars" is likely what is being seen in these "fireball" videos, except the distance makes them appear differently. Of course it is going to look much more dramatic when you get to see it close up.
