A meteorite(陨石) moved quickly across the sky and exploded(爆炸) over central Russia on Feb. 15, raining fireballs over a vast area and causing a shock wave that smashed windows, damaged buildings and injured 1,200 people.
People heading to work in Chelyabinsk heard what sounded like an explosion, saw a bright light and then felt the shock wave, according to a Reuters journalist in the industrial city, 1,500 km east of Moscow.
The fireball, travelling at a speed of 30 km per second according to Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos), had blazed(熊熊燃烧) across the horizon(地平线), leaving a long white trail that could be seen as far as 200 km away.
Car alarms went off, thousands of windows were broken and mobile phone networks were interrupted for a short time. The Interior Ministry said the meteorite explosion, a very rare sight, also released a great explosive sound.
"l was driving to work. It was quite dark, but it suddenly became bright as if it were day," said Viktor Prokofiev, 36, a resident(居民) of Yekaterinburg in the Ural Region. "I felt like I was blinded by headlights(车头灯)."
The meteorite, which weighed about 10 tonnes and might have been made of iron, entered Earth's atmosphere and broke apart 30 km—50 km above ground, according to Russia's Academy of Sciences.
"The energy released when it entered the Earth's atmosphere was equal to a few kilo tonnes" the Academy said "the power of a small atomic weapon exploding."
No deaths were reported but the Emergencies Ministry said 20, 000 rescue and clean-up workers were sent to the Ural Region after President Vladimir Putin told Emergencies Minister Vladimir Puchkov to ease and help the victims.
The Interior Ministry said about 1,200 people had been injured, at least 200 of which were children, and most from broken pieces of glass.
