NASA | NPP Sees Aftermath of the Chelyabinsk Meteor

A meteor exploded over Chelyabinsk, releasing debris into the atmosphere. The OMPS satellite observed the plume, which was modeled by NASA to predict its trajectory. The plume circumnavigated the globe, forming a belt, and persisted for a long time. These observations help in understanding atmospheric impacts and are crucial for climate and ozone studies.
