There is probably little left of the celestial body. There is no information about possible damage yet. Thanks to the calculations of specialists, they knew about the approach of the asteroid in advance.

The meteor's passage could also be observed in Leipzig and Prague. According to NASA calculations, the estimated crash site is the territory of the Nehnhausen community in the federal state of Brandenburg.

In April 2023, a small meteorite fell in northern Germany in the city of Elmshorn. It broke through the roof of one of the houses, the German Aerospace Center (DLR) reported.

As Regnum reported, on January 15, a small fireball appeared in the sky over Japan, and footage of the fireball spread on social networks.
