This photo was taken just after the large meteorite passed over this Russian town and exploded, in flight, on Feb 15th 2013. The contrail in the sky is from the meteorite passing by. Also to note is the pole to the left side with a good number of U hooks and porcelain pintypes as well as a disc. Makes you wonder how many poles came down in the city where the blast happened? News reports state 950 people were injured in the aerial explosion and a lot of building damages from the blast shockwave.
