Meteorites are not ‘flaming rocks of doom,' NASA says
The “bright fireball” was traveling at 35,000 mph when it exploded at 8:03 a.m. with the “energy equivalent of 3 tons of TNT,” according to NASA Meteor Watch, the agency's project that tracks fireball activity.
“Existing law states that any meteorites belong to the owner of the property on which they fell; out of respect for the privacy of those in the area, we will not disclose the locations of these finds,”
And finding anything of value is likely harder than you think.
“The pieces from this object were way too small to leave a crater. Unlike what you see in the movies, meteorites are not ‘flaming rocks of doom’ that blast holes in the ground. In fact, you can pick one up right after it hits ground. So no smoking rocks in small craters.”

I love the autumn kitties!
Good morning.
Thanks. Monday nights are always like that.
I hate all those yellows! LOL! I do an inward grimace when I have all the letters but the wrong word two or three times.
Good job, though!
Thanks!

I got a bit more sleep today, and a (lucky) three spot... maybe there is something to that...

Looks like rain for a good part of the day...
Congrats on the rain. I wish it wasn’t quite so prevalent here, but I’m always glad to share! ;o]
I ready today that one problem that could lead to Alzheimer’s is ... is ... oh, yeah, not getting enough hours of sleep.
Never happen to me!
I used to read... before I got too much sleep... or is it not enough sleep?
🤔

Good morning. Happy Humph Day.
Dasn’t squoosh da kitteh.
Mrs. ArGee is now wondering if our dog got something in her system when she was licking someone’s hand at Home Depot over the weekend. Maybe said someone had just put Purelle on or something. She seems to be eating better.
It took me 5 today.

Good to know the Dog Princess is eating better. This is the anti-seizure food, right?
Five seems to be a good number...

Right now she’s eating chicken and rice until we get her weight back up a little. We’re putting in a little of the anti-seizure food with it, but it will be a week or so before she’s back on her normal diet.
Good job!
Same to you on this Mittwoch Morgen!
