This was a rather ominous passage from that website link above.

Every year there are about 30 meteors that explode in the atmosphere with power greater than a kiloton — the equivalent of a thousands tons of TNT — Worden said.

Yeah.
I'm waiting for another Tunguska(spelling?) impact to happen.
If that had happened during the nuclear age, it might've set off a panicked launch of missiles before anyone bothered to check it out first.

It's enough to worry about, but not enough to hide under the table quaking in abject terror over.
*chuckle*
We've had some darn lucky near misses too lately.
