Meteor that fell in Serbia

One week ago there was a meteor that crashed in Serbia! It was a big news in all the medias. A meteor is a natural object created in space. Meteors can be big or small. The meteor that appears in the sky, broke down into many little pieces, that eventualy became dust. It happened exactly next to a city called Prokuplje in centeral Serbia. When the meteor crashed it broke into many little pieces so if you are looking for a piece it will look like a small rock, but people can not see the difference between a regular one and the meteor's leftovers! When it was in space it was in liquid form and when it was landing it changed into solid form. Astronomers study meteors and they say that the from the moment the meteor comes in the earth's atmosphere, to the moment it burns, only a few seconds pass, so people can't see it at all. The fact that the meteor fell on Earth does not make any bad effects on people.
