“A small asteroid burned up after it entered the Earth’s atmosphere Wednesday afternoon over the Philippines. It did not cause any harm to humans or infrastructure. The European Space Agency discovered the small asteroid early Wednesday and said it would enter the atmosphere at 12:46 p.m. EDT over the western Pacific Ocean near the Philippines’ island of Luzon. [A]bout 3 foot in diameter, the asteroid eluded detection until Wednesday morning and is the ninth asteroid detected before entering the Earth’s atmosphere, the ESA said in a post on X. … the asteroid produced a ‘spectacular bright flash in the sky over the Philippines’ several hours after it was detected, New Scientist reported.” (09/04/24)
