A meteor blast destroyed hundreds of windows and other property thanks to the massive sound wave produced by the comet that impacted in the atmosphere close to Russia. Reports in Russia count for over one thousand reports of injuries, but no deaths. The explosion itself was produced at a distance of one hundred and twenty two miles above the atmosphere, and scientist are studying the asteroids route to prevent other flying objects to impact the earth in the near future. The blast energy was equal to that of a nuclear explosion as the asteroid surpassed the speed of sound. Bellow, some of the footage shown by Russian citizens whom recorded the sound blast and the meteorites flashing path.
RussiaToday uploaded security camera footage of the explosions. In one particularly dramatic clip, a man and a woman chat in an office when suddenly the window explodes in a flash of white light.
