I ask this as well - is a baby born in Turkey - the country of it - is that baby any less important than a baby born in Gaza? Is said baby any...

I was taken aback by Paul Chodas's comment on the Russian fireball, “This was a moderate explosion.”
What? 300 kilotons of TNT is a moderate explosion?
Well, when you compare it to Tunguska, yeah, but when was the last time CTBTO infrasound stations got something closely comparable to the 300 kilotons of TNT?
The data coming from the Fireball Logs of the American Meteor Society seems to be the best data we (meaning you and me) have confirming the increase of incoming fireballs. Unfortunately, the AMS data relies on reports to be sent in and apparently anyone can send in a report. If there were only so many designated observers each watching the night sky for fixed amount of time each night, then this would be statistically valuable data. However, the increase in number of the fireball logs at AMS could be attributed to the activity of reporting becoming more common or more amateur astronomers out there watching. For example, I would never have reported a fireball a year ago because I've never heard of AMS. Now I might.
The detection of nuclear detonation using a natural sound channel in the upper atmosphere goes back to about 1947 with Project Mogul which used microphones in high altitude balloons. ( Project Mogul was also used to explain the captured “Flying Saucer” at Roswell for those of you who this may sound familiar. ) It is not generally known, but the temperature of the atmosphere both ABOVE and below 15 km is warmer, making 15 km the level of the sound channel as sound is reflected off of warmer air masses. The ocean has a similar sound channel about 1 km below the ocean surface, which is how whales communicate across vast distances.
The collection of data that the CTBTO has on incoming meteors could very well be dazzling. They are not relying on reports from anyone willy-nilly, but they can detect and locate EVERY incoming meteor, day or night, over land or sea, that exceeds a certain threshold of energy and CTBTO also can assign an energy of impact for each meteor. And they have had the potential to do this for decades.
I can't imagine CTBTO (or someone else) not doing this. I for one, would love to see what that data looks like.
So, maybe when Paul Chodas says, “This was a moderate explosion,” maybe he knows something that we don't.
