First Brexit, then Trump … now the meteors have started
It might not be quite as big as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs. But 65 million years later, look what happened.

That’s quite big isn’t it? Here it is from another angle.

It happened over Wisconsin and Illinois in the US, since you ask, but you might want to check your home insurance, just in case.
And another.
One of our officers caught this on their squad camera at about 1:30 AM today. The meteor lit up the sky and then came into view. pic.twitter.com/rRQazjC9Ro

Woah!
People who know about this sort of thing said it was the size of a “small van”.
Reminds us of this one over Russia a few years back.
Here’s what to do in the event of an emergency.
