wrong. normally I don't want to go into specifics because I don't consider the thread a scientific one.
I said your assertion is wrong because meteoroid, asteroid or comets are referred to as meteor once they entered the atmosphere. whether they burn out as shooting star or cause an airburst called bolide or superbolide or end up crashing to the earth they are something "meteor"

furthermore meteoroid are differentiate from asteroid based on size. the size has been further reduce from it initial estimated size of 10m to about a meter. now the meteor that cause the Russia is estimated to be between 17 to 20 meter so can't be referred to has meteoroid
grin

Bro, meteoroids and asteroids don't become meteors. Rather, they cause meteors.

Read this:

Whenever a meteoroid plows into the Earth’s atmosphere, it will create a brief flash of moving light in the sky, called a meteor.
https://www.amsmeteors.org/meteor-showers/meteor-faq/

A meteor is just a light phenomenon. It is not debris. It is not a solid object. It is just a moving light created by a meteoroid or asteroid as it hurtles through the atmosphere.

As per the Russian episode, if the superbolide that exploded over Russia is not a meteoroid, then it must be an asteroid.

Perhaps, you are the one who has a problem.

Buhari's cabinet is well-balanced. If you think Buhari is nepotistic, then wait till you get to a position of authority before judging.

Buhari has been fair to everyone.

Someone is passing off his opinion without being aware of any of the matter aside that a plane crashed, and you became so excited?

In the absence of fact, everyone would have an opinion. But for you to laud such an opinion as sense, you really need to go back to nursery school.

Ode.

Osinbanjo's death will favour the APC as it will lead to postponement of elections for 3mths. More than enough time for Buhari to clampdown heavily on the opposition, perfect their rigging plans and fulanize the judiciary.
Abeg, shut your mouth.

Buhari does not need election postponed. He would beat Adimeru anytime any day.

Correction: A meteorite is a solid piece of debris from an object, such as a comet, asteroid, or meteoroid, that originates in outer space and survives its passage through the atmosphere to reach the surface of a planet or moon.
What are you correcting na grin

I merely corrected a wrong notion. I was not particular about broadening the term. I just wanted to correct how someone saw meteors.

James4bright:
The All progressive congress has had its turn and trust me it wasn't to eradicate poverty but rather it brought about enormous poverty and mass suffering. This Article is being writing for the sole purpose of pin pointing out the errors of this administration that led to the recession of our great nation Nigeria. Even as we undergo a poverty like never before, some irrational beings would still try to see reasons as to the fact that the intensity of the mass suffering isn't as a result of the Presidential power being controlled by the All progressive congress.

Rather than beating around the point, let's look into how Nigeria got into this recession. Who still remembers how Goodluck Ebele Jonathan tried to get rid of the fuel subsidy but due to severe agitation by the masses he reconsidered, but in the case of this administration our honourable President gladly got rid of the subsidy even with the pleads and warning of the intensity of the poverty that would be unleashed if he did so, but he didn't consider but carried out his wish. Firstly, what's a subsidy, its a certain amount being paid for the cost of production of a commodity or product by the government, in order for the price of that commodity to fall, so as citizens can afford it. In this case our government pay for the cost of production of fuel in order to make the price a good fit for an average Nigerian and to prevent a rise in the price of commodities, before the fuel subsidy was gotten rid of by this administration, a promised was made to make the Nigerian refineries functional, but still they aren't functional even as the 4 years tenure comes to an end.

This administration isn't fighting poverty but messing with the mindset of the masses. If poverty truly wants to be fought against, this administration has enough revenue to head on with such intent. Who still remembers the money gotten from the ghost workers and other corrupt persons that was convicted by this administration, why not focus on the refineries first, knowing fully well that this would alienate poverty enormously, because fuel price would fall there by reducing the cost of production and the prices of commodities within the country.

Let's now look into the huge debt amount being owed by this administration, over N22 trillion or more. But masses are still suffering. If our honourable President wants to get rid of this the enormous poverty inflicted upon the masses, he could, by carrying out insightful decisions. But he would rather carry on with the delusional fight against corruption which he obviously knows would excite the masses, while the money being recovered becomes void and goes into the pocket of our secret looters, and let's try not to forget that this administration promised to reduce the fuel price down to N45, but a contrary motion was taken entirely, here we are battling inflation and poverty.
The Economist, Sanusi, Soludo and many experts were among those who saw the recession even before Buhari became president.

The Economist categorically warned Goodluck to combat corruption and vigorously embrace savings to avoid the recession.

Toward the 2015 election, Soludo said that no matter who won between GEJ or Buhari, Nigerians will face a hard time.

Only an illiterate would think that recessions just happen like that. Recessions build over time. It is not like Buhari met a great economy and plunged it into a recession.

As a matter of fact, the man should be praised for keeping the country together through a recession. He even had to slash his basic salary.

what are they then
The Russian episode was a caused by a meteoroid that exploded in the atmosphere. Meteoroids that explode in the atmosphere are called bolides and are capable of generating shock waves that can smash windows.

The Russian episode was however a superbolide.

OpenYourEyes1:
Asteroids or Meteoriod don't land on earth without burning up in the atmosphere. The "burning up" is called meteor(meteor shower). Unburnt meteor falls on the ground as Meteorites.

Just as we have ICE melting into -> WATER , water into -> VAPOR, vapor to -> Water droplets

* Ice in this case is Asteroid. Ice particles are Meteoriod.

* Water/vapor (melted ice) is Meteor

* Water droplets are Meteorites.
You are still making the same mistake.

Meteoroid don't completely burn up all the time. When it heats up as it travels through the atmosphere, it produces impression of a star falling or shooting across the sky. This light phenomenon is called a meteor.

Meteor is not an object, it is just a phenomenon, known to ancient astronomers as "shooting star", or " falling star".

There is no star shooting across the sky nor is there a star hurtling down on earth. It is just a meteoroid burning up as it travels. Sometimes, the meteoroid may be large and does not totally burn up. It lands on land or in the sea. This remnant is what is called a meteorite.

Note: meteor is not an object. It is just a phenomenon.

Too a large extent she is right. Atiku is made and he has always given and supported others even buhari, Obasanjo etc.. He doesn’t need the money cos he’s not a lavish or flamboyant person. He doesn’t go abroad for treatment and is in touch with the local people and realities in the country. The people who are hungry for money are Sm of the Pdp hawks arrnd him.

Atiku is a giver to a large extent.
How can you conclude that he is a giver to a large extent

What if the amount he doles out is just a fraction of the amount he draws in?

A man who has 20 naira and gives out 10 naira has given to a large extent.

But a man who has 100 naira and gives out 10 naira, has not given out to a large extent.

And again, you seemed sure that Atiku would not misappropriate or embezzle funds because he is made. Have you forgotten a word called avarice

That someone is rich does not mean he doesn't want to be richer.

Your charge sheet won't read corruption rather it would read extortion. This is why the EFCC lose thier case due to technicalities. The EFCC had been losing the vast majority of thier cases.I was in a session with officers from Nigeria last week somewhere in the UK.
Example u kill a person they ate dead what is the essen9of saying lawfull and unlawfull killing??
There are loads and types of corruption which is the end product but the procedural function of these action is what is dealt with by the law is behavioral pattern..
Things like being criminal minded and morally bankrupt.
Which charge sheet reads corruption? Is corruption a singular crime?

So, if a policeman is charged with taking a bribe, his charge sheet must read corruption rather than bribery in order to establish a case of corruption against him?

OK, it is no problem if you refuse to repost your definition of corruption.

So, if a policeman collects bribe from an unwilling driver (whose documents are intact), it is not corruption because the driver gained nothing but if a policeman collects bribe from a driver who has no driver's license, it is corruption because both the policeman and driver gained in the end.

Money laundering is not corruption but LAUNDARING. in Nigeria there is a certain amount you can move without declaration once you pass that nd do not declare it, you have committed money Laundering offence.
Money laundering is the process of concealing the origins of money obtained illegally by passing it through a complex sequence of banking transfers or commercial transactions

however corruption is a different ball game
Corruption occurs when a person in a position of Authority abuse thier office for thier own gains or that of another person..The worse case of corruption in NIgeria does not Involve money, it is attitude.
This is like me telling you body language is 65% important in communication that speach which is less than 35% and you argue.
You need a clear understanding of waht corruption is for you to tackle it.
So, according to you, a lecturer who has sex with a female student is guilty of corruption?

Since he abused his position of authority over the student, it must be corruption, according to you, not so?

I am appalled, because if not for the feud between him and Atiku we may never have known that Atiku was messing up with the Petroleum Technology Development Fund, PTDF. Obasanjo cannot say that he did not know that Atiku was stealing the PTDF, established in 1973, meant for the welfare of our country by training our brilliant students in the universities with the fund. A fund meant for the improvement of our petroleum technology, a fund meant to ensure that the sons and daughters of poor parents who have the intellect can engage in research work. But alas! this fund was used, not only to pay lawyers, but to establish just one company alone. Now, Atiku dipped his hand into it, Fasawe dipped his hand into it and Mr. President dipped his hand into it for personal reasons. We want to have the full story of PTDF and other agencies of government. (GANI FAWEHINMI)
