Earth Asteroids Chelyabinsk disaster shows how dangerous an asteroid really is; Know this HORROR story
On February 15, 2013, an asteroid exploded over the city of Chelyabinsk, Russia. The explosion resulted in the asteroid breaking down into small pebbles which rained onto Earth in the form of debris. The debris itself was not the cause of any real injury or damage. Amazingly, the real threat was from the explosion that took place and the shock wave that followed combined with the reality of modern living. The horror story that ensued injured nearly a thousand people. Since the last major asteroid strike to the Earth was hundreds of thousands years ago, most do not realize the lethality of even the smallest of space rocks. Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson explained the true danger we face from these space rocks speaking in a Joe Rogan podcast.
