[meteorite-list] Satellite Reentry Witness

How many on this list have ever seen a satellite reentry? I'd be surprised if the answer is more than one. You might want to start with at least a startled look. March 25, 1988. Big'un -- Discarded Soviet cargo vessel came in over Texas (on it's way to Canada). Wildest thing I've ever seen

Re: [meteorite-list] Why Meteorites Are Unlikely To Cause Fires

I think what Ron (in a most outstanding presentation) may not have made clear, is that the shockwave pattern that exists during initial entry to the atmosphere, ceases to exist once the meteor slows to a falling velocity. And only exists for a few seconds at most. This cessation of shockwave
