'Like a dream:' Researchers find space rock that landed in B.C. Interior


CALGARY — Researchers have honed in on an area where chunks of space rock scattered in the rugged B.C. A fireball lit up the sky over parts of Western Canada on the night of Sept. 4 and some witnesses reported hearing a loud boom. Reports came from Calgary, B.C.’s Okanagan Valley and Kootenay region and the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island. Hildebrand and his colleagues asked for the public’s help in tracking down where the fragments landed by sharing videos. We’ve been collecting videos and calibrating them so we can solve where the rock went through the atmosphere,” he said.
