Also according to this:

List of meteor air bursts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Three similar events happened over Canada in '65, '66 and '67, all roughly the same size and altitude when they exploded. WTF.

related news...they finally 'poinpointed' that dinosaur extinction is related to comet/asteroid

AFP: Asteroid strike did in the dinosaurs: study

This is actually old news as it was theorized years or decades ago that the Chicxulub crater occurring at the KT boundary in the Yucatan Peninsula happened over 65 million years ago (was in my 2008 textbook for an introductory earth sciences course). The article is just saying that they have a more precise date by utilizing newer data analysis tools, though pinpointing it to within 11,000 years is incredibly impressive.

What was, the meteor smoke trail, or the asteroid?

Both are long gone. The asteroid swooped through and was well on its way in minutes.

Another meteor explosion: Cuban media report meteorite explosion this week but no damage (with video)

HAVANA - Cuba apparently experienced a phenomenon similar to but smaller than the meteorite that detonated over Russia this week, island media reported, with startled residents describing a bright light in the sky and a loud explosion that shook windows and walls.

There were no reports of any injuries or damage such as those caused by the Russia meteorite, which sent out shockwaves that hurt some 1,200 people and shattered countless windows.

In a video from a state TV newscast posted on the website CubaSi late Friday, unidentified residents of the central city of Rodas, near Cienfuegos, said the explosion was impressive.

"On Tuesday we left home to fish around five in the afternoon, and around 8:00 we saw a light in the heavens and then a big ball of fire, bigger than the sun," one local man said in the video.

"My home shook completely," said a woman. "I had never heard such a strange thing."
