Did a piece of space junk land in Queensland?
Or is it a meteorite? News reports and meteor discussion groups have been buzzing with stories of what appears to be either a meteorite strike or a pice of space junk impacting around 6:30 pm last night. A bright fireball shot across the sky and there is an eyewitness account of an impact. You can read the ABC account here, nine msn has the account of the impact. Other reports are here and here.
