So I guess in other words it was still ionizing, and fragmented -maybe 30 to
50miles up - as it went below the horizon. So if anything fell it could be a
few hundred miles away to the east ...
If Nininger was locating this meteorite he would continue traveling east
until witnesses say it landed just to the west. Then start looking.
