Meteorite “Kosice”, the fall in Slovakia

On February 28th at 22:24:46 UT a bright bolide enlightened the night sky over the Central Europe. Despite the late hour bunch of people were watching Olympics ice hockey finals on TV and eye witnessed astonishing celestial spectacle. The glare of the bolide illuminated streets and interior of apartments, at some places in Eastern Slovakia cannon-like burst or series of low frequency blasts were heard. Due to the bad weather, cloudy skies and scatter showers the Central European Fireball Network (operated by Dr. Pavel Spurny of the Czech Academy of Sciences) did not take direct optical records of the bolide and Slovak Video Network (operated by Dr. Juraj Toth of Comenius University in Bratislava) did not operate that night so that at first moment it seemed that there are no scientific records of this event. Fortunately fast photoelectric sensors on 7 automated fireball stations in the Czech Republic (6) and Austria (1) detected the illumination of the sky caused by the bolide which enabled to determine exact time and duration of the bolide and estimate its brightness. The bolide reached the maximum brightness at least -18 magnitude in one huge flare. In the morning few photographers took a picture of a possible scatter dust trail. Later on several surveillance camera data were published showing the moment when the night became a day for a second but only two videos from Hungary (Orkeny village, Fazzi Daniella and Vass Gabor; Telki village, contact persons Szarneczky Krisztian, Kiss Laszlo) actually captured the fireball itself. Thanks to calibration of videos by several members of the Hungarian Astronomical Association (MCSE - www.mcse.hu) contributed (namely Igaz Antal) and trajectory analysis done by Dr. Jiri Borovicka of the Czech Academy of Sciences gave the hope that significant number of meteorite fragments reached the surface. He also calculated the impact area near town Kosice in Eastern Slovakia. The data from Local Seismic Network Eastern Slovakia (project led by Prof. Moczo of Comenius University) confirmed the fall location as well. The expedition consisting of scientists and graduate students of the Astronomical Institute of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (under the leadership of Jan Svoren), Comenius University in Bratislava (under the leadership of Juraj Toth), Czech Academy of Sciences (under the leadership of Pavel Spurny) started to sweep meadows and forests at the calculated area. The first meteorite was discovered by Juraj Tóth on March 20th. Until the March 28th, 64 meteorite fragments were found. The heaviest fragment weights 2.19 kg, the smallest pieces were only about 0.5 gram. The total mass recovered is equal to 3.917kg. Preliminary analysis implies that the recovered meteorite is classified as an ordinary H5 chondrite (Dr. J. Haloda, Czech Geological Survey). The ongoing data analysis will reveal also other parameters of this bolide as the meteorite atmospheric velocity, pre-atmospheric mass and initial orbit in the Solar System. According to Slovak laws, meteorites belong to the state. Collecting meteorites is allowed only to state or academic institutions from Slovak Republic.

Meteor robbant fel az ország felett – Tények riport

A hadsereg radarjai sem látták a fényes meteoritot, ami két napja lépett a föld légterébe majd felrobbant. Valószínűleg azért, mert sebessége akár százszorosa is lehetett egy repülőjének. Magyarországon többen látták a hatalmas villanást. Egyelőre a kutatók a pontos robbanás helyét igyekeznek kiszámolni, mert ott akár földre hullott meteoritdarabok is lehetnek. Miskolc, Kazincbarcika és Ózd környékén az erős villanás mellett robbanás hangját is lehetett hallani.

The Army's radar could not see the bright meteorites, which came two days ago, the earth will explode airspace. Probably because they could have a speed of up to one hundred times repülőjének. Hungary saw a huge flash and more. For now, researchers try to calculate the precise location of an explosion, because there may be even fallen meteoritdarabok. Miskolc, Kazincbarcika Ozd and around the flash with a strong explosion was heard in the voice.
A csillagászok azt mondják: asztal nagyságú meteorit lehetett, olyan egy méter átmérőjű. Hogyha alacsonyan semmisült meg, mondjuk úgy 20-30 km magasságban, akkor van esély, hogy darabjai hullottak a földre. Hogy erre hol kerülhetett sor, azt majd a háromszögeléssel, a térbeli helyzet rekonstruálásával kerülhet sor.
Astronomers say the meteorite the size of table could be a one meter diameter. Low if destroyed, let's say 20-30 km altitude, there is a chance that the pieces fell to the ground. That this could be where it will be the triangulation of the three-dimensional reconstruction of the situation may be.

Ilyen fényes meteorrobbanás viszonylag ritkán, alig tucatszor látható a világon évente. Egy szlovák csillagász azt mondta a Tényeknek, hogy egy cseh meteorfigyelő radar rögzítette a képét. A tűzgolyó – szaknyelven bolid – Kassa közelében robbant szét. Ez alapján biztosak benne, hogy meteorit volt és nem UFO.
Such a bright meteorrobbanás relatively rare, hardly visible to the world a dozen times a year. A Slovak astronomer told the facts that a Czech meteorfigyelő fixed the radar picture. The fireball - technically boli - Kosice exploded near the vessel. On this basis, be sure that the meteorite was not UFO.

Utoljára ilyen látványos meteorit robbanást 2009 novemberében Dél-Afrikában láttak. Nappali fénybe borította a környéket több száz kilométeres körzetben.
Last spectacular meteorite explosion in November 2009 that South Africa had seen. Daylight covered the area several hundred kilometers.
