Geocache Description:

Krater efter Eslövs meteoriten 2007.
Ta med egen penna.

The crater has been located and it was very close to hit Eslöv directly. The impact site is located souht of Eslöv, close to one of the roads leading out of Eslöv towards Örtofta Sugar plant (Danisco Sugar Örtofta). The crater is located close to the old main road just 700 or 800 meters from the factory . The crater has been excavated to try to find out if the meteor was intact.

A big piece was found in the impact crater and it’s been sent to the ESA in the Netherlands for examination and analyzed.

The meteorite was an unexpected event and was witnessed only by a few eyewitnesses. The energy of the blast was estimated to be between 1 and 2 tons of TNT and left a hole of nearly 15 metres in diameter in a field near Eslöv. The meteorite itself was observed during it’s passage through the air over Eslöv by Mr. Maarten Vanden Eynde a belgian resident on a visit in Eslöv, who actually managed to capture the fire-ball in the sky with his camera.
