Probably not something major to talk about, but I find science quite interesting in terms of things that we both understand and don't understand. This quite appealed to me. It's meant to be the biggest meteor to strike the earth in around a century or so. There's a video of it on the website and I'm sure you can find it on YouTube or something.
Anyone ever seen meteors before? In the sky or up close in personal? What do people think about the idea that aliens or something could be living in meteors? (I'm sure this isn't real but you have to admit that the films and stuff that talk about aliens/bacteria coming from meteors is intriguing!) Also, what would you do if a meteor just appeared out of the sky?
I personally have never seen a meteor that I can recall. No meteor showers or anything like that. Sure, I've read/heard about them in the news but not seen them with my own eyes. I also think that I would probably crap myself if I saw something like that and didn't fully understand what was going on. It's not everyday this happens and you wouldn't immediately think "HOLY HELL A METEOR"
