houses, killed one person and injured 6 others.-----


One Reader writes:
Tell him to find his Nasa satellite or meteorite fell in Argentina, one person died, the explosion was heard several miles away:

My reply:

Hello,  I have viewed the bottom video; it is a video of a jet aircraft with contrail taken at near sunset, thus the clouds are lit.  The video is NOT  from the same day (video is dated 9/18), thus totally unrelated.

I have read the newspaper reports about the house and viewed the photos.  It is my opinion that this was not a meteorite impact.  The damage is inconsistent with that of a meteorite impact;  there are no remaining meteorite fragments.

The UARS satellite fell to Earth last week so there is no possibility that this was cause by the UARS satellite; there is no satellite wreckage debris reported.

The most obvious explanation is a gas leak, chemical explosion,or  some other accident source.  Another possibility is that it was caused by an explosive. 

Thank you for sharing this information with me. Best Regards, LunarMeteorite*Hunter...Tokyo

Could be this delayed debris coming from UARS?  

Reply: No the satellite had already fallen on the 23/24.  There are no reports of wreckage or debris at the house site in Argentina indicating that anything fell from the sky.
