I saw uncertainties of more than 12 hours on these datas (corresponding to many times the earth's size), but with always the localisation of the impact at less the 10km, according to these datas. Very curious, isn't it ? <;3)~~~~~ Have a pleasant week-end, Raoul ----- Observatoire de Genève Raoul Behrend CH-1290 Sauverny / Suisse Raoul.Behrend@Obs.UniGe.CH http://obswww.unige.ch/~behrend "Herbe à Nicot?
