Large Fireball From Space Crashes Into Atlantic

A large fireball from space crashed into the Atlantic earlier this month - but it was barely noticed. The very bright meteor exploded in the air 620 miles off the coast of Brazil, releasing the energy equivalent to 13,000 tons of TNT - the same as the first atomic weapon that levelled Hiroshima. The latest fireball measured around seven metres across and entered the Earth's atmosphere at 41,600mph.
