  Turned out, it wasn't a transformer but a meteor being transformed. The spectacular bright light in the sky that stunned Young and other Bay Area residents was an exploding meteor called a fireball, said Chabot Space and Science Center astronomer Ben Burress.
  The flash of light lit up the skies about 5:25 a.m., Burress said. People from as far away as Monterey County and into Nevada reported the fireball to the Space and Science Center, Burress said.
  "As near as we can figure, judging from what people have told us they've seen, what we had was a fireball," Burress said. "It's a fairly rare and random event. These things can just come out of the blue."

- Fireball lights up early-morning sky - January 17, 2013 A fireball lit up the predawn Northern California sky Thursday, according to reports from early risers. The possible meteor was reported about 5:25 a.m. by people across California and as far away as Fernley, Nev., about 30 miles east of Reno. "Wow, what a sight to have seen!" David Rivas of Seaside (Monterey County) wrote in an e-mail to The Chronicle.
- Predawn spectacle was flaming comet - January 23, 2013
  The fireball that lit up the predawn Northern California sky last week was a small comet that flamed out when it hit the Earth's atmosphere, a researcher said.
  The comet "instantly turned into dust and gas," resulting in the flash of light seen by many at 5:21 a.m. last Thursday, said meteor hunter Peter Jenniskens, a scientist at the Seti Institute in Mountain View. Because the comet vaporized, no pieces fell to Earth, Jenniskens said. The comet came into contact with the Earth's atmosphere just north of Yosemite National Park at a speed of 160,000 mph, Jenniskens said.

  Russia’s Urals region has been rocked by a meteorite explosion in the stratosphere. The impact wave damaged several buildings, and blew out thousands of windows amid frigid winter weather. Hundreds are seeking medical attention for minor injuries.
  According to unconfirmed reports, the meteorite was intercepted by an air defense unit at the Urzhumka settlement near Chelyabinsk. A missile salvo blew the meteorite to pieces at an altitude of 20 kilometers, local newspaper Znak reports quoting a source in the military.
  Regnum news agency quoted a military source who claimed that the vapor condensation trail of the meteorite speaks to the fact that the meteorite was intercepted by air defenses.
  Army units found three meteorite debris impact sites, two of which are in an area near Chebarkul Lake, west of Chelyabinsk. The third site was found some 80 kilometers further to the northwest, near the town of Zlatoust. One of the fragments that struck near Chebarkul left a crater six meters in diameter.
  According to estimates by the Russian Academy of Sciences, the space object weighed about 10 tons before entering Earth’s atmosphere.
- Meteor strike injures hundreds in central Russia - 15 February 2013
  A meteor crashing in central Russia's Ural mountains has injured at least 500 people, as the shockwave blew out windows and rocked buildings.
  A fireball was seen streaking through the clear morning sky above the city of Yekaterinburg, followed by loud bangs.
  The meteor is believed to have landed in a lake near Chebarkul, a town in the neighbouring Chelyabinsk region.
  Much of the impact was felt in the city of Chelyabinsk, some 200km (125 miles) south of Yekaterinburg.
  Scientists have played down suggestions that there is any link between the event in the Urals and 2012 DA14, an asteroid expected to race past the Earth on Friday at a distance of just 27,700km (17,200 miles) - the closest ever predicted for an object of that size.
  Prof Alan Fitzsimmons, of the Astrophysics Research Centre at Queen's University Belfast, said there was "almost definitely" no connection.
  "One reason is that 2012 DA14 is approaching Earth from the south, and this object hit in the northern hemisphere," he told BBC News.
  This is not a valid reason.

  Reportedly at least one piece of the fallen object caused damage on the ground in Chelyabinsk. According to preliminary reports, it crashed into a wall near a zinc factory, disrupting the city's Internet and mobile service. Witnesses said the explosion was so loud that it seemed like an earthquake and thunder had struck at the same time, and that there were huge trails of smoke across the sky.

- Russian meteorite blast explained: Fireball explosion, not meteor shower - 15 February, 2013
  Russian scientists investigating the meteorite explosion in the Urals explained the nature of the event that caused havoc in the region. NASA said the shockwave force was equal to a 500-kiloton explosion – 30 times the Hiroshima blast.
  NASA has increased its estimate of the energy released during the blast to nearly 500 kilotons of TNT. The calculations were based on the data from infrasound stations across the globe, some being over 6,500 kilometers away from Chelyabinsk. In comparison, the US atom bomb 'Little Boy' destroyed Hiroshima in 1945 with only 16 kilotons.
  According to Canadian astronomer Margaret Campbell-Brown, the blast could be even more powerful than North Korea’s recent nuclear test. Citing the data from two infrasound stations near the impact site, she estimated the object to be 15 meters in diameter with a mass of around 40 tons.

- ScienceCasts: What Exploded Over Russia? - Feb 26, 2013
  Two weeks after an asteroid exploded over Russia's Ural mountains, scientists are making progress understanding the origin and make-up of the unexpected space rock. This week's ScienceCast presents their latest results.
- WHAT EXPLODED OVER RUSSIA (NASA)? - Feb. 26, 2013:
  Western Ontario Professor of Physics Peter Brown analyzed the data: "The asteroid was about 17 meters in diameter and weighed approximately 10,000 metric tons," he reports. "It struck Earth's atmosphere at 40,000 mph and broke apart about 12 to 15 miles above Earth's surface. The energy of the resulting explosion exceeded 470 kilotons of TNT." For comparison, the first atomic bombs produced only 15 to 20 kilotons
- LARGEST RUSSIAN METEOR FRAGMENT FOUND - Feb 27, 2013
  Russian scientists on Monday hailed the finding of what they said was the largest yet fragment of a meteorite that came crashing through the skies over Siberia and exploded over Russia's Ural Mountains last week.
  The find was among a large number of fragments brought back from the Federal University of the Urals by a ski expedition team.
  "We haven't been able count [the fragments], but we believe it's more than 100," said Victor Grokhovsky, member of the meteorite committee at the university.
  "But the most significant among them was a fragment, which Masha PInkova found yesterday evening, not even 24 hours ago, that weighs 1.8 kilograms," he explained. "It's the largest fragment of this meteor that we have found to this day."
- Biggest Chunk of Chelyabinsk Meteorite Goes on Sale - 29 September 2013
  The charred heavenly stone, offered on the classified ads site Avito.ru with the slogan "a serious meteorite for serious people," weighs 3.36 kilograms (7.4 pounds). It was certified by the Chelyabinsk State University to be, indeed, a meteorite shard and not just a lump of earthly dirt.
- Chelyabinsk meteorite is 'as old as the solar system', say Russian scientists - 07 October 2013
  It is indicated by isotope tests and the structure of meteorite fragments. The initial mass of the Chelyabinsk Meteorite was around 10,000 metric tonnes at an altitude of 1,000 kilometres. The mass was reduced to about one tonne with an enormous explosion at an altitude of 23 km.
  That is a lot of reduction. So there must have been a lot of water and/or organic ices in it. But there cannot be a lot of these ices in an asteroid as the warmth generated by the Sun would have evaporated it long ago. Comet dust to mass ratios have been suggested to vary from 0.1 to greater than one suggesting both the name DIRTY SNOWBALLS or ICEY DIRTBALLS. So the Russian meteor was a comet fragment as first announced by them.

  On the morning of Feb. 15, a fireball lit up the skies above the town of Chelyabinsk. A 12,000-ton bollide estimated to be roughly 20 meters in diameter came screaming into the atmosphere at more than 42,000 mph. Locals could feel the heat from the blast while dozens of dashboard cameras made recordings of the event, which were disseminated widely on social media.

  - Using the satellite's Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite, NASA has released a video showing how the dust from the meteor was thrown up 28 miles and coated the Earth
  - It also left visible chunks on the ground for passers by to pick up
  That represents far less material than is ejected by an erupting volcano, but it still got dragged around by the circulating atmosphere. After four days, the Suomi sensors had watched that dust plume wrap all the way around the planet.
  Eventually, it smeared into a single, 250 mile wide belt at an altitude of roughly 22 miles. The satellite watched it sit there for months, slowly settling downward about 295 feet each day.

  A UFO, which could have been a meteor, spotted in the skies above Cross Roads by theatre nurse Jeanette Bray
  Some readers have suggested it may not be a coincidence it was the same night – February 15 – that a meteor dramatically broke up in flames over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk, damaging buildings and injuring about 1,000 people
  Commenting online about the Cross Roads sighting, a website visitor with the user name pjl20 said: “Was this a genuine meteor or just a random piece of ‘space junk’ burning up in the atmosphere on re-entry?

    It's fireball season on Earth, and it is starkly clear for residents in eastern Russia where a bright fireball exploded in the atmosphere early today (Feb. 15).
    For reasons scientists don't quite understand, there appears to be an increase in the number of bright meteors visible blazing through the night sky during the month of February.

  It is very odd that the SA news has not posted or aired any news of this rare daytime event; please help by contacting the news agencies in your country and urge them to write a story!
  Contrary to SA News reports-
  The object was NOT the size of a marble. This object was in the order of 10s- 100s kg, maybe up to half the size of a VW bug or a full bug, to be seen in daytime and produce sonics. Hopefully they will find a competent scientist to comment. Since there was no fragmentation reported I suspect that it may be an iron meteoroid that entered the atmosphere. I also suspect given the reports that we have a new meteorite to be found on the ground.

"But it took an actual meteor over Russia exploding with 25 times the power of the atom bomb in Hiroshima to convince people that maybe we should start doing something about it."

  - HAVE WE ACCIDENTALLY PREVENTED ANOTHER ICE AGE? - March 21,2013
    Under the circumstances, what’s not to like about global warming? Among other things, droughts, desertification, stronger hurricanes and more extreme climate events, I hear you say. Well, yes, but when it comes to extreme climate events, it’s hard to beat 3,000 feet of ice in your yard. Droughts and deserts? You can get them in cold venues as well as warm ones. For instance, average annual precipitation for Antarctica is about 6.5 inches a year, and for about half the continent it is 4 inches or less. Areas that receive less than 10 inches of precipitation a year are classified as deserts. Temperature extremes? Granted, 120 F temperatures suck, but they’re a lot easier to take than minus 75 F temperatures, which helps explain why there are 7.2 million people living in Baghdad and 300 people living at McMurdo station. So which is the better future? Mangos in Montana or polar bears in Portland?

  Fireball?
- Ball of fire lights up skies above Spain - April 15, 2013 “The impact was so abrupt that the object immediately caught fire, creating a ball of flame around 100 kilometers above the Earth,” Jose Maria Madiedo of the University of Huelva told the Huffington Post. The meteor then shot towards Madrid at over 75,000 kilometers an hour before disintegrating completely at an altitude of 70 kilometers.
  The Spanish Institution for the Study of Meteors and Meteorites, which tracked the fireball, classified the meteorite as a piece of a comet that was flying by Earth
  . The explosion on impact was so bright that it could be viewed as far away as the southern Spanish cities of Seville, Granada and Murcia.
  "I was looking up at the sky when there was a flash that in a matter of seconds began to grow," astronomer Leonor Ana Hernandez said to the Huffington Post. "When the explosion happened, everything around us turned white for a few seconds," and several green and blue followed the initial explosion, she added. The explosion as the fireball entered the atmosphere sparked comparisons with the 500-kiloton explosion caused by the meteorite that fell over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk in February.
  Although the meteorite measured only a few meters in diameter, scientists estimated that the initial explosion was comparable in power to a nuclear bomb.

- A very bright fireball over southern Poland - 18 Apr 2013
  "On Tuesday evening, a very bright meteor appeared over southern Poland." said Mariusz Wisniewski from the Comet and Meteor Workshop (PKiM) astronomic association. April 16, 2013 at 22:26 the sky over the Polish-Czech-Slovak border was illuminated by a very bright fireball. The fireball has been recorded by many fireball stations in the Polish Fireball Network and also by stations in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. An analysis of these recordings is in process. Preliminary estimates lead to the conclusion that this was a very long phenomenon. It was recorded over a distance of nearly 250 km. High-speed entry into the atmosphere and the height at which the fireball vanished exclude a possibility of finding any meteorites.

- Was the West, Texas Explosion a Meteorite Impact? - 19 Apr 2013
  The whole world seems content to assume that, because the Texas explosion two days ago occurred at a fertilizer factory, it must have been fertilizer that caused the explosion. The problem with that theory is that the factory in question did not stock the commonly used fertilizer, ammonium nitrate, which is a solid, prone to exploding (with the proper ignition source) and is widely used by farmers and bomb makers (both the legal and illegal kinds). What the factory did stock was anhydrous ammonium, a gas, that is less volatile and, when ignited, less likely to explode with such force as seen at the West plant. For this reason, all mainstream media reports that have attempted to explain the explosion have been forced to refer to ammonium nitrate, despite the fact that there was no ammonium nitrate at the plant. This historical revisionism has already infected Wikipedia (no surprise there), where the West explosion is referred to as having been caused by ammonium nitrate.
  Update: As of today, there have been claims that the facility may have also had 270 tons of ammonium nitrate as of December 2012.

  With the peak of the Eta Aquarids just a few days away, one might guess these events are related to the meteor shower, however due to the timing and location this is not likely. First, both of these fireballs occurred several hours before the Eta Aquarids radiant had even risen. Secondly the radiants for these fireballs were no where near the Eta Aquarids radiant. Event 967 which occurred first, started in the west and headed east , this would place its radiant on the opposite side of the sky from the meteor shower radiant. The second event also happened more than 4 hours before the Eta Aquarids radiant had risen, and this fireball originated in the south west, heading north east, placing its radiant far from that of the meteor shower as well.

  In the last 24 hours the AMS has received confirmed reports about 4 unique fireball events all occurring near 4:00 AM UTC time. The most recent event occurred in Arkansas and Missouri on May 19th near 3:37 UTC. At the same time 3:37 UTC 4 witnesses reported a fireball in Arizona. The distance between these two locations would inhibit witnesses from observing the same fireball from both locations. On May 18th two large fireball meteors were also spotted within an hour of each other, one over the central east coast and another in Colorado. Below is a table of the events in question.

The first bolide (event #1143) entered the atmosphere over north central PA around 9:05 PM Eastern time and was traveling from the east-south-east to the west-north-west. . . . While the vectors for the 2nd sighting put the object much farther south initially it was not clear if this was a separate event or if a large volume of witnesses reported the wrong time (certainly possible on a holiday weekend). We have contacted some of these witnesses in an attempt to confirm the reported time and have verified this was in fact a separate event.

  A flaming meteor in the night sky could be seen in Oregon — with reported sightings from Marion to Washington counties — Saturday night. Note that it’s the white orb to the left of the larger light, which is a street light.
  OMSI Planetarium Manager Jim Todd told KOIN 6 News the meteor was a combination of a "fireball and space junk."
  Todd said the fireball was visible for 7 seconds. He described it as being “a minus 10 on the brightness scale,” which according to the International Comet Quarterly is nearly as bright as the full moon.

    About 300 lunar impacts have been logged over the years but this latest impact, from March 17, is considered much, much brighter than anything else observed.
    It is understood the space rock left a 20m-wide crater after it slammed into the Moon's surface at 90,000km/h.
    "We have seen a couple of others in the ‘wow’ category but not this bright," said Robert Suggs, manager of NASA’s Lunar Impact Monitoring Program at Marshall Spaceflight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
    The blast lasted only about a single second and shone like a 4th magnitude star— making it bright enough to see with just the unaided eye
