Hello,

Nice page Mike.

I can say that you could include one more meteorite in this list.

Here in Brazil we had a fall after a fireball of June 19. The fisrt fragment 
was found in the city of Varre-Sai (Rio de Janeiro state), and other fragments 
were found since then (I think that the total now is around 5), including a 
fragment found in the neighboor city in the Espirito Santo state.

The only site in english I found is this one:

And this is a possible video of the event:

Hi List,

I was adding Zunhua to my list of 21st Century Falls and I noticed
that 2008 was a very busy year for falls - nine falls, or almost one
per month.

http://www.galactic-stone.com/pages/falls

2002 saw eight falls, but so far 2008 is the busiest year of the 21st century.

Oddly, there were no recorded falls in 2005.  I find that hard to
believe.  Surely one meteorite must have fallen somewhere during 2005.
Does anyone know of any good 2005 candidates that were never
recovered?

Best regards,

MikeG
