Meteor explodes above Montrose
May 21, 2004
When a meteor exploded Friday at 2:44 AM over Montrose it was serendipity defined for Montrose High School teacher Mike Nadiak and the All-Sky club he oversees, sponsored by the Denver Museum of Nature and Science that has digital cameras set up on the rooftops of various schools around the state. The All-Sky club was able to look at images from the MHS camera of a meteor that streaked across the sky from the San Juan Mountains before exploding between Montrose and Colona Friday morning.
