Interesting sight! A bit dated though, over 4 years ago.....

Very cool. The guys on the show "Meteorite Men" looked for fragments of that on a show a few years ago.

It seems like they did. They used videos and visual evidence to plot a impact field. They also have a buddy that gets them radar signatures showing paths. But they did that on every show. It probably wouldn't have been on the show if they hadn't found some fragments.

I remember that!

They found a bunch of peices on some frozen dugouts or ponds in Saskatchewn if memory serves.

One benefit of snow cover....easy to recover meteorites!
