Below is a message from Andrei Olkhovatov to the meteorobs mailing list about this.
- Marco ---forwarded message--- > I talked a couple days ago with a person who had talked by phone with a > leader of Kosmopoisk (by the way, this is organization on research of UFOs, > etc.). The person did retell me the conversation. The leader phoned from the > Mama settlement area. The expedition was in taiga. It was told that about 2 > areas of the forest fall and tree-burning with dimensions 10 by 6 and 15 by > 8 kilometers were discovered. No words about the discovered meteorite > fragments were told. So I hope that they discovered them within the last 2 > days... The problem is that such large areas of destruction hardly conform > with a moderate size of the hypothetical meteorite (meteoroid), so the > question "how is the devastation connected with the Vitim bolide?" must be > investigated. As I know, there is a geology-associated person in the > expedition, but I don't know the person's experience with meteorites. > We can just wait for more detailed info. > > Sincerely, > Andrei Ol'khovatov > Russia, Moscow > > > The archive and Web site for our list is at http://www.meteorobs.org > To stop getting all email from the 'meteorobs' lists, use our Webform: > http://www.meteorobs.org/subscribe.html > ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
