The Car, the Hole, and the Peekskill Meteorite
Credit & Copyright: Pierre Thomas (LST), ENS Lyon
Explanation: The Peekskill meteor of 1992 was captured on 16 independent
videos and then struck a car. Documented as brighter than the full Moon, the
spectacular fireball crossed parts of several US states during its 40
seconds of glory before landing in Peekskill, New York. The resulting
meteorite, pictured here, is composed of dense rock and has the size and
mass of an extremely heavy bowling ball.
