Ok... Here goes...

A meteorite is a meteor that makes it through earth's atmosphere without being completely burned up. Most meteorites can be classified into 3 distinct groups. Iron meteorites are the most abundant. Iron does not easily burn up in the atmosphere, thus increasing the chances that an iron meteorite would reach the surface. Iron meteorites are comprised of mostly iron and nickel, along with smaller amounts of other metals. The second category of meteorite is the stony meteorites. These are rare because the stone usually burns away easily in the atmosphere. These are also hard to find since they tend to blend in well with other stones. These meteorites are mostly made of silicates. Finally, there is the group of Stony-Irons. These are made up of roughly equal amounts of iron-nickel, and silicate. These differ in appearance from iron lumps protruding from a rocky base, or a stone matrix surrounding an iron meteorite.

Generally, meteorites were originally rather large chunks of debris. Some may have even been smaller asteroids. Some meteorites are never totally recovered. They smash into the earth's crust causing immense impact craters. A well-known impact crater is called Barringer Crater. This immense crater is located in Arizona. This crater is thought to have been caused by a 150-foot, 300000-ton Nickel-iron meteorite striking the earth at 40000 miles per hour. The force of the resulting explosion was equivalent to 20 million tons of TNT. This environmental disaster happened more than 50000 years ago. Over 1000 meteorites weighing over 100 grams strike earth each year. This crater raises a question, not of if, but when this will happen again.

Wow, that was...long...

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
