Huh. You'd think if a 16.5 TON meteorite fell to Earth in 2020, someone would have noticed. No, this thing was found by scientists in 2020. It's been there for ages.

Though considering that it was found in Somalia, perhaps a 16.5 ton impact there in 2020 would not have been all bad.

Thanks for the info. 16 tons is a good size chunk of metal. As a news junkie I was wondering how I hadn’t heard about an impact that size.
