Nasa has confirmed the fireball that was seen over California in late April 2012 did indeed drop meteorites on the ground.
Mike Farmer, a meteorite hunter has already found fragments of this CM2 classed meteorite. At this time, it is not know if there are meteorites for sale for reserachers.
Daylight fireballs are always a thrill. They must be a big meteoroid coming in, right? Big enought to put meteorites on the ground, we hope.
This week over San Antonio, there was a daylight fireball seen to the south. It was short, maybe 3-4 seconds which hints at a steep angle and hopefully a short strewnfield. However, there was no reported acoustical boom. That is bad, very bad. At this point, I'm discounting the idea any material made it to the ground.
