  • 2008 TC3 Update - Impact Flash Imaged from Satellite

    While ground pictures of the fireball are still missing (the event occurred in a remote area over northern Sudan), it looks like finally

    there is an image of the impact flash.

    The explosion was imaged by the weather satellite Meteosat 8.

    Check our blog (link in this video information) for more information and images

  • Yes. There is one expected to burn up over Africa soon.

  • Hi, the one expected to burn up over Africa was THIS one on 07 October. BTW it looks like the impact flash has been imaged by the weather satellite Meteosat 8. See the comment above.
