the story of the head coming out of central and west and russia right now i think lee incredible the sky full of fire and brimstone about ten thousand tons. shot eyewitnesses reported that. as a trail of smoke a day at least twenty times the strength of the atomic bomb dropped on hiroshima took place in the sky above the cities and towns of the year olds the blows to wave smashed windows undestroyed loose again this was buildings. it was followed by a downpour stone fragments from the meteorite the people. several people wounded but no one was killed as a result of this culture nick attack. or
10:31 am
not done did not get. this eerie a first and then we'll drop been here i don't think you have time to go all the way to trevor mckee. scientists have come to the area where the meteorite fell in order to map its trajectory. to do this they have to interview hundreds of eyewitnesses who can provide found information. no bear over there and how high was it yeah high high above the woods there was a flat sheet but it was more of the self i think more cell to our way of the sun this now is that where the flash was. and that's.
10:32 am
right. i feel just after some time had bounced fifteen minutes or so i think i filmed it from my back. and it just stayed there it didn't go a way where it just expanded and that suits me. thank you very much no problem you're welcome i guess i'm popular now. this is good information that means the fragmentation of the media went further. nursery school teacher. was playing with children in the classroom. that she was about to save fourteen young lives. when i saw it in the sky and all of the kids of course ran to the windows to see and then it became very hot
10:33 am
and the noise was deafening i saw these lights and for some reason thought that the windows would be blown out maybe they were terrorists how could i know so i rushed them to safety from here into the kitchen over there. but one child hesitated and stayed near the window any longer and she would have been wounded by glass fragments yet this loves i grabbed her and the moment i turned around we were hit by this wave. i crouched down with her and we were hit by shards of glass some of it hit me in the forehead. then everyone ran over there and stand there was another explosion but i tried to calm the children down covered myself with a towel so that they couldn't see the blood and. when the parents of the children learned about the scale of the disaster they were grateful for i knew it was fast reactions. kids they talk to you and i wish you.
10:34 am
in the trial you have been screened sixteen hundred people were wounded as a result of the impact many were injured when they came to the windows to see the flash in the sky the blast wave that came a few minutes after the explosion broke thousands of windows showering people with . the windows were broken in this trial you have ensconced little two but even though the temperature was minus twenty it was still not closed on the contrary every doctor was mobilized. the children that were admitted to the hospital had cuts in the face. it's probably because they were up against the windows the moment the glass broke eleven children were hospitalized most of them had head injuries thank. you. was admitted to the same hospital after the blast on the morning of february the fifteenth he nearly ended up buried under
10:35 am
a pile of rubble. the injury isn't serious only the kneecap was broken. and we were just loading up some carriages when we saw the flash. we didn't understand what it was a first so we didn't even pay attention. and then we were hit by the blast wave and we didn't even have time to understand what was happening look would now adays scientists are well aware of how much damage the meteorite could have caused. what i think is that chelyabinsk was shaken but unhurt. there are several sites in this area where nuclear weapons are manufactured would put my direct hit on one of those sites situated within one hundred kilometers of chelyabinsk. that would have resulted in much more serious consequences.
10:36 am
at the time the meteorite fell a passenger airplane was approaching. the crew of the passengers on board so were a bright flash both the aircraft and the meteorite were caught on camera on the ground but first there were rumors that a u.f.o. shot down the meteorite to save the people of earth another theory is that it was a rocket fired by the military. later scientists studied the video thoroughly and came to the conclusion that it features the same airplane that almost collided with a meteorite. now officially known as chilly out in the meteorite enter the earth's atmosphere on february fifteenth at nine twenty am local time it exploded over a heavily populated area the body was seventeen meters in diameter and it weighed eighteen thousand tonnes nasa estimates that the total yield of the explosion was
10:37 am
five hundred kilo tons of t.n.t. the ural incident was even registered as far away as alaska and the antarctic. the meteorite that exploded in the earth's atmosphere flew from southeast to northwest at a speed of twenty kilometers per second. its vapor trail could be seen in several regions of russia and for the first time in history the meteorites impact was filmed on video from all sides. so bright it was the dogs just of all the dogs are running away across the florida must be. in the village of rosa. left his home and saw the unusual celeste above he immediately began recording what he was seeing on his smartphone
10:38 am
his footage would soon be seen around the world but it was risky filming the explosion left him with concussion. has anyone heard rosa. i wasn't here right you were in egypt yeah. it was loud. i started filming and i was swept by a wave as if i was blown by the wind. and of course i showed my parents the video afterwards they thought i was very rude but whatever i was scared. like a meteorite to start the day. the meteorite is the largest space object to hit the earth in more than a hundred years before the most prominent phenomena for research has pushed the event when an object exploded near the pod come anigh. on june the thirtieth one
10:39 am
thousand nine hundred eight the sky over siberia was pierced by a shining fear as it approached the exploded with disastrous results. as a matter of fact its trajectory was about the same and the blast wave was huge in that instance a lot of trees were flattened over thousands of hex tears well in this case the only things damaged were windows this means that the explosive force was different maybe that altitude. but both. are not the only objects to hit the in the last hundred years. to be mostly when there were a few more objects that hit the planet one was in the south of russia in one thousand nine hundred twenty two and was part of the side of your meteorite
10:40 am
powerful stone was found only sixty years later another was the secretively meteorite which was also large but it did not hit a populated area it was iron and it broke into small fragments meaning it was quite fragile. one of the large fragments of the meteorite fell into lake. ninety kilometers from chile i've been. the first to call the police was a local fisherman. he said that something fell from the sky and straight into where he was fishing. this is my area this is where my fishing pond is usually every fish but it's got his own area for us fishing a fragment of meteorite and some other fragment fell down a huge teaser of ice and snow around just now there's something black lying down there george when. the meteorite exploded high in the sky and the fragments dispersed over dozens of kilometers.
10:41 am
moscow scientists are yet to find all of these fragments. so when they do see and what height was it did it fly right over. in full like that i was aiming to lay down like that mighty trying to see anything really to stop the smoke. going up some of. them just enter that. direction of the highway that is no no no not the highway seemed like it was right above the school. and this is the reaction of the younger generation as to the incident. today we're trying to figure out the trajectory of the media. probably some of the locals have already collected some
10:42 am
fragments. so now we're just scouting the central region for the meteorite past and maybe drop something. this is exploration just some simple reconnaissance. ok let's go to a. site. interests of already concluded that about a thousand tons of extraterrestrial material fell to earth after the meteorite exploded the rest turned into dust and dispersed in the atmosphere some of the remaining larger fragments a yet to be found. there were real from his am very good cheer about forty kilometers.
10:43 am
10:44 am
10:45 am
atmosphere for nine hours. and no one was beyond about what was coming in the unexpected attack from space threaten the lives of several million people the cumulative meteorites of such size are very hard to pinpoint i would even say that for the time being it's impossible no one has such equipment telescopes are used to observe larger objects this is something we have to work at the woods is a top priority area of technology development so this there have been impacts in the past and they will happen in the future the scale of these impacts will greatly depend on their size. which used this was almost the same as a mistrial attack except that it came from space. that's why it's order to reduce the chance of it happening again we have to protect our country with maybe five telescopes at the top it would cost about half a billion rubles would be roughly the same cost in damages as a result of chile adding skids.
10:46 am
where it presumably fell has become a place of pilgrimage it attracts scientists the police and tourists. don't want to turn to diving so far to find fragments but that did not yield any results i was discovered that the lake is ten meters deep and has two or three meters of motive. but i seriously doubt that finding a fragment the size of an orange is going to be possible. however scientists believe that the fragments that fell into the lake could be in the size of a large watermelon the other fragments of the meteorite continued on that path and could have landed a hundred kilometers from here. oh you gentleman.
10:47 am
i had the first time. but now i can positively tell you that there's nothing there. the local authorities are determined to find the meteorite no matter what it takes and turn the village into a tourist attraction the locals on the whole a ready to greet their guests. people have to walk to the media right you can't drive there use a horse environmentally friendly vehicle this only happens once in a hundred years everyone wants to have a look trying to find the media right. finally that's where it is we've been looking for there. is some else. the scientific expedition is now near the village of. his residence have reported
10:48 am
the break down of the image and can be found in the snow covered fee. here it is. almost through to the ice crust these are the small fragments so they only went as deep as the first layer of crust. but then here you can see the tail it's clear to see. well here is the stone itself this beautiful. this was the first fragmentation followed by the impact wave so it mostly split into such small fragments and they rained down everywhere. there really is a lot of this material lying around here it's everywhere. completely. radioactive toxic. stuff from
10:49 am
space. for almost four point five billion years ago. and they've changed very very little . by studying. better understanding of the process is the. solar system. snatched up with the impact with the hope of making a quick buck. his personal stephenie is. so local guys had large ones they were selling them for a price we couldn't afford these ones we found by ourselves. even the police are worried about the massive. as far as they know regular rockets are being passed off
10:50 am
those chunks of meteorite. to be cautious and wary of identified substances from unidentified individuals. the police to conduct operations and offices confiscate both stones and money from meteorite trade is according to the authorities. preventing fraud. the fragments from to. be found in moscow to show provides a guarantee that the systems are genuine citing the law that does not forbid trading in meteorites. there for its price in russian shops is about a thousand rubles per. girl if you took it to the us. the prices would of course speak to were three times higher. it is so special because so many people side.
10:51 am
with the mass media providing a wealth of information a thing for. the whole advertising campaign was organized around. it became world famous overnight. this footage has now been seen by millions of people for in t.v. show hosts made fun of russian drivers who didn't seem to be that impressed by the meteorite the motorists paid little attention to what was going on in the sky. go first americans ask why russians have recorded their media right from all angles while they don't even have one shot of the plane that hit the pentagon ok arena here. faith. they were at this swimming pool my daughter's been swimming for two years now since she was four months old. the best cameras always on i get into the car switch it on fasten my seatbelt and
10:52 am
i'm off and spends most of his life behind the wheel he works as a long distance driver under a captured images of the flying object while driving around in skin his car with his small daughter. it appeared from the left but i couldn't see it then the traffic light was green but put a good old it on me i slowed down then there was this bright light up my hands were burned a bit all exactly scorched but i could feel the heat. and then it passed by and turned to the right. and i was in the right place at the right time there's no other explanation. this is probably the best recording of the meteorite did that you don't have a million views on you tube in just ten days so that if we make the drug. we froze computer freezes he just took the pedal. the other drivers guys from the
10:53 am
urals just looked around for sold a meteorite and drove. ok first row quickly step away from the windows and everyone else hide under your desk . so there was a flash of light what are we supposed to do step away from pintos step away from the windows that's right that was the first thing to do and what do we have to do next no calling. and when you heard the explosion get down where. no one was wounded even though the building's exterior was badly damaged. shortly before the meteor shot through the sky classes were ended early because of a flu outbreak a lucky coincidence. although the people still saw the flashes when they got home.
10:54 am
you can see here it's covered with plastic film. here we will only change the glass because the frame is still sturdy. many children still have trouble sleeping off to be. some live in dread catastrophic strike. just this one honestly i still feel kind of sick inside. i thought what if something happened to my parents they were at work but how would i be able to live . we were lucky other people had never seen such an event we were lucky to see it in our lifetime this was such a beautiful phenomenon of course a bit scary like science fiction but above everything else you should be positive and simply move on with your life. meteorite gave russian and international
10:55 am
scientists are unique to study the interaction between space and. time both the planet and on the population of the impact. today we can say that this is a stone meteorite or a so-called right. this type of meteorite is rather fragile it splits into fragments of all possible sizes. it was hit several times on its way to earth there's a lot of evidence for this. happened a long time ago. we're not aware of any cases of radiation related to meteorites as for microbes this is not the kind of meteorite that contains organic matter i would think it's full of earthly microbes from. the people who have to face space threats many times in the future. a few days off the. american astrophysicist reportedly spotted six small asteroids approaching the. truth comes
10:56 am
up. tomorrow once or in twenty years i don't know whose roots is in theory humanity if it wants to live a long happy life or just live from the past to think about it and the most advanced countries are already thinking about it and working on it. as a discussing the high probability of disaster in twenty thirty six when the doomsday asteroid will cross the whole day if it hits all planet. of the worlds in time the playoffs know if this happens. meteorites that has made such a stir. pale in comparison. to .
