The following item is from JPL's "THIS MONTH IN SPACE HISTORY":
>August 10
>     In 1972, a bright meteor is photographed during the day and seen from
>     Utah to Alberta Canada. This meteroid is the only one known to enter
>     and then leave Earth's atmosphere.

Anyone have any more info on this interesting event?
