Can anyone identify for me the object which re-entered  on July 1st around
2200 gmt.

Location of impact was Brazil...approx co-ordinates 57 west,13 south..the
Matto Grosso region.
Reports indicate that debris,about 3-4 feet in diameter , described as an
"iron ball" crashed down leaving a sizeable crater.

There follows a report from a local paper about the incident...
