Hello

Don't know if this is of any interest. I came across your site a few weeks ago and thought of it when I read the "an unusual airplane contrail" remark.


"What is it? Experts disagree. The first guess was a sofa-sized rock that exploded as a daytime fireball, but perhaps a better hypothesis is an unusual airplane contrail reflecting the setting Sun."
