I didn't know that. Thanks! There are also fulgurites, glass formed from sand vitrified by a lightning strike. Sand, of course, is in plentiful supply in Egypt, and the absence of covering vegetation means that meteorites are easily visible, at...

On network television it is for keeping the channel surfers coming back, on YouTube it's to stretch minimal content over the maximum time. But this whole "In our last episode.." at the beginning of an episode and the "What will happen to our...
