VIDEO: Meteor that hit Russia is beautiful reminder

James Bright The Express-Star

CHICKASHA —

So, a simple blog today.

I am sure most know about the meteor that struck Russia early this morning resulting in more than a 1,000 injuries and viral video that is just completely mystifying.

I love events like this. Obviously I don't relish the injuries, but I love the reminder of how small we are and how amazing our universe is.

I know that if I saw something like this, I probably wouldn't react as calmly as the people in the video do, so they deserve a few kudos.
