2026, May 21. China, Heilongjiang, Shuangyashan, Baoqing County, Dongxing Town. Airburst. Time: 02:15:51UT. Coordinates: (46.6N;133.1E). Altitude: 31.5km. Velocity Components: vx =14.4; vy = -6.5; vz = 1.0. Absolute Velocity: 15.83 km/s. Angle of Entry: 3.62° relative to the horizontal plane. Note on the trajectory: Because the vertical component (v_z = 1.0) is very small compared to the horizontal speed (15.80 km/s), this meteor entered at an incredibly shallow, skimming angle—essentially a "grazing" fireball entry. Energy: 3.5e10, -e = 0.12 or 120,000 kg/TNT. Even though overland, I'm watching this region since the Arafura Sea meteoroid entry, and recent fireball entries over the Tasman Sea - see posts below.
MASS WHALE STRANDINGS CAUSED BY METEOROIDS AND METEOR SHOWERS. The completed paper can be found below in the 2024 January 7th post titled Connection between Meteoroids and Mass Whale Strandings. “It is not known why they sometimes run aground on the seashore: for it is asserted that this happens rather frequently when the fancy takes them and without any apparent reason.” -Arisotle
