Hey, anyone seen this incredible photo??
Impact pic
Much larger pic
APOD article
http://www.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,4057,11480527%255E13569,00.html
It appears to be the first ever recorded image of a meteor impacting the Earth (though for some reason, they're saying they don't think it was a meteor).
Note the impact and surrounding cloud of debris.
It is a very high-quality pic. There are before-and-after shots too (see APOD article). I've been digitally playing with them to find more clues. Experts have examined the pic and believe the image has not been digitally altered.
The APOD article mentions an online discussion about it, but the link's rotted. Anyone know where to read more about this?
