1. I e-mailed my parents.
They may have. My dad's an astronomer, so he's probably heard about it. :shrug: That would have been cool to see.

2. I saw one like it, decades ago.
Once in a lifetime thrill.

6. From the article it looks like Northern NM.
It was at 3 in the morning, though, so you'd have to be a real night-owl. :P

5. Cool
so a meteor entered the atmosphere last night over New Mexico, burned, and then disintegrated.
