    russian rushed towards the landing site and fought each other for the meteorite's fragments which might contain some valuable metal elements, and that was how so many people got injured but no one dead tbh. russians might be the tiest european citizens tbh, a total disgrace to the white people

    It would sort of explode on it's own. Not sure what the exact term would be, but it would be more like an implosion. Basic physics. Ever put a freezing temperature glass marble in boiling water?

    33,000 MPH. Heat friction. Surface expansion faster than heat transfer. They break apart because of that, rather than explode. The explosion was when a piece hit.

    As for burning out on its own, it was too big to burn out. One small enough to burn out before hitting wouldn't have need as bright as this one was.
    i did notice the explosive light, it only lasted a few seconds and the meteorite like vanished. the omniscient WC brings us knowledge again

    I am a physicist. I know about physics. Thanks for the lesson though.

    So what is the correct term. It isn't an implosion, or explosion. What is it called when something breaks apart because the thermal expansion of the outside exceeds the elasticity to the inside?

    Is it Thermal Stress Fracture, or is there a better term?

    Just give up now, and there might be one or two people who will wonder if you were trolling, as opposed to going full re .

    Then again, we would miss out on the entertainment.....


    Never mind, carry on.

    just broke apart because of the strong friction against atmosphere, it looked like an explosion when the fire expanded, but it's not what you often call an explosion by its strict definition tbh. it just broke into smaller pieces which burned out all at once imho

    Yes... Very close...

    It looked white-hot with the camera, but that can be deceiving because the camera elements were likely saturated. I've seen a red streaking meteor break up before, but is was smaller, at night, and there was no indication of impact following. It was a very interesting sight. This one brightened up the streets in daylight!

    So, what is the correct terminology? It eludes me right now.
