  • The bolide of February 10, 2010: Observations in Hidalgo and Puebla, Mexico Guadalupe Cordero Karina Cervantes-de la Cruz Eduardo Gómez Ciencias de la Tierra Bolide Mexico meteoroid spatial debris On February 10th, 2010, the inhabitant population of some towns near the border between the States of Hidalgo and Puebla, Mexico, heard a strong blast overhead and felt seismic tremors and roof and windows vibration. At Tulancingo, Hidalgo, 25 km from the explosion zone, visual reports of a bolide and thunder-like sounds were described. A possible explanation may be related with re-entry of spatial debris number 33006 from satellite COSMOS 2421. We describe interviews with witnesses. An alternative hypothesis is a meteoritic origin of the bolide. 2011 artículo científico 0016-7169 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=56820060006 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=568 Geofísica Internacional application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Geofísica Internacional (México) Num.1 Vol.50
