Watch the moment an asteroid hit Earth 🤩 A small asteroid hit Earth and burned up in the atmosphere over the Philippines. It was discovered by astronomers only hours before it streaked across the sky in a bright fireball, but went unseen by many on the ground as the view was obscured by cloudy weather produced by Typhoon Enteng. Fortunately, there was no need for an evacuation as the asteroid was too small to do any damage on the ground. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2446397-a-small-aste
