"Fire in the Sky", I call this one, an older piece that really pops with some light editing. The concept could just as easily be Tunguska as Chicxulub, but any impactor this bright is going to leave a mark in the lives of the witnesses...

Did a Comet Airburst Destroy a Native American Community?
Astronomers know the large-scale devastation that can happen when a large comet or asteroid explodes in the atmosphere. Think of the Tunguska impact 1908 that flattened trees for 2,220 square kilometers of unpopulated Siberian forest. What if something like this happened to an inhabited place? Archeologists think this might have happened to the Ohio River Valley 1600-1700 years ago, wiping out the aboriginal Hopewell civilizations. The evidence isn't clear, though, and other scientists disagree.

Quoting #ESA Operations:
"Last estimation shows #Sar2667's point of impact getting much closer to the #Rouen area.

As Edward Teller once pointed out, nuking asteroids is actually the most effective way to avoid an impact, and the only way to do so without much advance warning. The catch? To instantly vaporize an object 1 kilometer across you need a *1 gigaton* warhead. 👀
