Yes, I guess they got that when it landed on that great
hoMedics Bathroom scale in the sky.

Give me a break, NASA has no clue what it "weighed" as I would think it was constantly burning off anyway.

First it was 10 tons, then 100 tons, now it's 10,000?

There is here:

and it was 7,000 tons at first so 10,000 ain't much of a jump

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9303086




from above link:

"The estimated size of the object, prior to entering Earth's atmosphere, has been revised upward from 49 feet (15 meters) to 55 feet (17 meters), and its estimated mass has increased from 7,000 to 10,000 tons. Also, the estimate for energy released during the event has increased by 30 kilotons to nearly 500 kilotons of energy released. These new estimates were generated using new data that had been collected by five additional infrasound stations located around the world – the first recording of the event being in Alaska, over 6,500 kilometers away from Chelyabinsk. The infrasound data indicates that the event, from atmospheric entry to the meteor's airborne disintegration took 32.5 seconds. The calculations using the infrasound data were performed by Peter Brown at the University of Western Ontario, Canada."

Can a size difference of 2 metres rally make up for a weight increase of several hundred percent?
