In Russia, the space explores you!

Here's what our Congress thinks about Meteors:

Or maybe we can count on you Canadians? Shouldn't you be rooting for the Maple Leafs or Winnipeg Jets?
 
A lot of videos have been showing the Darvaza Gas Crater in Turkmenestein as the impact site.

Wiki - The Derweze area is rich in natural gas. While drilling in 1971, Soviet geologists tapped into a cavern filled with natural gas. The ground beneath the drilling rig collapsed, leaving a large hole with a diameter of 230 feet. To avoid poisonous gas discharge, it was decided the best solution was to burn it off. Geologists had hoped the fire would use all the fuel in a matter of days. It is still burning. Locals have dubbed the cavern "The Door to Hell".
