"The Colorado fireball comes shortly after a similar event over Canada on November 20th, where over two dozen meteorite fragments have been recovered from agricultural land. We wait in anticipation to see if this huge Colorado fireball produced any similar fragments, but eyewitness accounts will be critical to aid such a search..."

We had one here in NW Wa state and it made a series of booms as it entered the atmosphere. I heard a lot of calls on the scanner of people calling in saying they heard shots or thinking some was trying to break down their front door. They were really that loud! Oh, and cool photo!

I live in Cripple Creek, about 20 miles from Guffey.

"It's bad enough when a blindingly beautiful meteor shower causes 99 percent of the world's population to lose its eyesight. But things only get worse when a crop of walking, flesh-eating plants begin preying on a sightless planet. Can a sighted sailor and an alcoholic scientist save the human race from becoming mere plant food? Steve Sekely directs this classic sci-fi picture based on the novel by John Wyndham."
