Suspected meteorite causes sickness

Officials are investigating unconfirmed reports that a meteorite crashed in southern Peru over the weekend and caused dozens of people to become sick.

The crater is some 66 feet wide and 16 feet deep.

Local media have reported eyewitness accounts of a fiery ball falling from the sky and smashing into the desolate Andean plain near the Bolivian border Saturday morning. Officials have said it was a meteorite.

everything i've seen regarding that say we're woefully underfunding the programs that track these things, and only covering a small portion of the sky. essentially, this means a species-ending size rock could slam into us, and we would have little to no forewarning.

just thought i'd brighten your day

oh well.

even if we saw this thing coming and had 100 days to prepare, is there really anything that can be done to stop it?
