“At the same time”, or “Within a few thousand years of each other”?

Bush’s fault. Bush and those damned SUVs.

Womyn and minorities were hardest hit.

It's not altogether uncommon to hear about double rainbows, but what about a double meteor strike? It's a rare event

I don't know about that.

Same meteor it just broke apart right before impact.

1 roid broke in two on approach.

Think of the rosetta comet splitting at the “neck” but continuing in tandem to its destination.

Is this what “science” has become?

Couldn’t it have been the two larger halves of the same meteor that had split as it careened through the atmosphere?

It wasn’t that very long ago that we witnessed a multi meteor strike in Russia. Remember that?

I used to like to visit Big Well in Greensburg, KS before Greensburg was mowed over by the big tornado. At Big Well, they had a gift shop which also contained a meteor...a good sized one. It was roughly 2 feet x 2 feet and weighed upwards of 2k lbs. Small, but heavy due to the iron it was made of.

In the early 2000’s, a large meteor, the size of a small bus, fell in the Yukon, It didn’t destroy any dinosaurs! At the time it fell, scientists were quite surprised that it wasn’t a global life destroying event.

It may be a ‘small world’, but it’s a BIG earth which is designed to tolerate quite a bit more than scientists care to imagine.

What was the timing of gravity-shredded comet 'Shoemaker-Levy 9' pieces being sucked into Jupiter? It laid down a nice trailing pattern in the atmosphere.

No surprise, considering a "day" on Jupiter is about 10 hours.

I've gotta wonder how rare it is. One of the few impacts we've ever witnessed was a multiple impact.

When the meteors slammed into Earth, Jämtland was just a seafloor, about 1,600 feet below the surface of the water.

It seems strange to me that they would create craters with 1600' of sea to get through first. Does this sound odd to anyone else?

Probably two pieces of the same thing.
