So did this actually land on earth or did it just past thru? Wow, that was a rare scene for anyone who actually saw it in person. I'm surprised there was no warning from astronomers or what not. Based on the size of this meteor, if this actually landed in a populated area, it would seem a tragic accident would've occured. I thought we have "people" that keep watch of these things to warn us.

Edit: Based on the one article I have read, it seems researchers are still looking for it.
