I know its just a coincidence that the meteor hit during a lunar eclipse while millions of people might have been watching (and probably not seeing it). But, it gives me chills to think that lump of rock has been orbiting through the solar system for possibly billions of years with its unknown fate already sealed. All it took was for the Sun and all the planets and moons to go through their cycles an uncountable number of times to bring it to its ultimate conclusion.
Now, unknown asteroid, your watch is done.
