          The reporter probably grabbed a frame from the video where they were discussing the asteroid without actually bothering to listen to the narrative. The photo is from the russian meteor (I think) that whizzed by and exploded last year.

            The article does discuss both, but I had not made the connection.

            Yes, that is last years "bang" over Russia but the journalist might well be confused.

            Good point.
