Hi AMSATs,
Unfortunatly the Chinese blow up the satellite into many peaces. It would have been a better action when they push back the satellite towards earth, but at some 850km satellite altitude its not that easy I guess.
Could be a chunk of it?
The passage of a meteorite reported by several citizens on the north east Quebec shore.
Several citizens of North and the South shore confirm to have seen a heavenly object brilliance to pass at high speed, Tuesday January 16 at the beginning of evening, coming from the west. It would act of a meteorite which would not have been completely consumed in the atmosphere. The Canadian Committee on the meteorites currently collects the observations and testimonys of this phenomenon. It seems that the phenomenon was seen up to Quebec.
The meteorite would have flown over the area of Kamouraska during a few seconds at an altitude of approximately 80 kilometers to finish its race in the south- east of the province of Quebec or the state of Maine.
