Good round up of videos and information at The Planetary Society website here and the Bad Astronomer has some analysis here.

Well this story has certainly blown up (har har) to a huge proportions now.

Anyone know if this is related to the asteroid that was supposed to come within 4 earth radii of us yesterday?

FTA: "This is almost certainly unrelated to the asteroid 2012 DA14 that will pass on Friday."

I always like a good conspiracy, surprised no one has claimed its a ballistic missile test :-)
