Scores ill in Peru 'meteor crash'
Hundreds of people in Peru have needed treatment after an object from
space - said to be a meteorite - plummeted to Earth in a remote area,
officials say.
They say the object left a deep crater after crashing
something in the ground being released or created as a result of a chemical
reaction was my first guess when I read about this yesterday. How does a
fireball differ from a meteorite in origin and makeup?
