Hey SPace Placers!
If you are interested, here is a link to a paper just published that provides a preliminary orbit for the asteroid that hit Russia on February 15 - http://urania.udea.edu.co/sitios/facom/research/chelyabinsk-meteoroid.php
Be sure to look at the attachments and You Tube videos. In one You Tube you can see snow coming off of a roof from the shock wave that hits. It is also fascinating to watch the orbit replay which goes back years and shows the impact point of Earth and the asteroid.
