I have invested in a special lamp to simulate a sunrise, sunset & beam happy vibes into my subconscious, all to encourage me to be productive, however the engineers of this lamp placed an off switch easily within reach so that lazy bums, like me, can "turn off the sun" and sleep the day away. There are some things that you cannot rush. However today I feel good! I feel shiny. I feel like talking to the world again.
Speaking of the World, wasn't that meteroite in Russia kinda funky?--all of a sudden, BAM! you're living a little closer to the reality of Deep Impact or Armagedon. Or getting to be Han Solo navigating the asteroid field. & anyone see the made for TV movie, Asteroid? There's a reason why it only got a 4.7 star rating on imdb.com.
Now, you might be thinking, what in the outer-world!?? How come no one noticed this was going to happen? Did the Atari missed this one? Apparently, even in this day & age, we still are not good enough to best the whole galaxy. Thanks Copernicus, the universe wins again. The Economist notes that NASA should put forth the engergy & effort to better protect our world, however, what are the odds that our galaxy's flying rocks will start to flock to Earth? Uh-Oh.
An Astroid is a realatively small inactive body of rock, carbon & metal, & it happily orbits the sun.
A Meteroid is a small particle from an asteroid or comet. Like a child or stepchild of an Asteroid.
A meteor is when the rock actually enters into the Earth's atmosphere & burns up.
A meteroite is what Russia experienced-something out of this world that lands on Earth.
This meteroite that hit Russia weighed about 10-tons, at 33, 000 mph & it exploded 18-32 miles above Russia homeland.
