Hi Moni, > there are two meteorites close to Sacramento, Bruceville (L6) and > Shingle Springs (Ataxite). <snip> > Still hoping for a meteorite to land in my backyard or fall through > my roof though! :-)
Another one almost did this past summer: a little northeast of Sacramento. (Actually, northeast of Auburn in the Tahoe National Forest). I triangulated the fall location from two All-Sky camera recordings of the bolide to within an approximately 1 x 3 mile area. If it had been desert, it would have had a decent chance of being recovered. Unfortunately, it was dense forest with significant elevation changes. (I spent a couple days up there looking for it.)
