Meteorite falling is not only important to us because of its astronomical significance, although it is very important to experts in related fields. What we need to pay attention to is how to warn the public in advance in the most effective way. As far as I know, so far, no country in the world can effectively monitor such incidents. I will also talk about the impact of meteorite fall on local enterprises and infrastructure. Unfortunately, this incident affected some enterprises, infrastructure, schools and kindergartens, and some people were injured. We need to make a thorough assessment of the impact of this incident. "

Commentary: It is reported that the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Chelyabinsk State Government have dispatched about 30,000 people to participate in the rescue operation.

According to the weather forecast, the lowest temperature at night in Chelyabinsk 15 is-0/4℃. The local government has set up a working group to repair damaged windows as soon as possible to avoid frostbite. After the incident, the Chelyabinsk state government announced that local schools and kindergartens would be suspended, and asked citizens to take their children back from school and stay at home as much as possible.

The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs said that they found falling meteorite fragments at three locations in Chelyabinsk. One of them fell into Lake Cooley in Sebal, leaving an ice hole about 8 meters in diameter. Some black hard objects 1 cm square were found nearby, which are estimated to be meteorite fragments. The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations issued a warning that local residents should not get close to unknown objects to avoid being hurt by harmful substances carried by meteorite fragments.

According to the website of Russian newspaper Izvestia, the Russian Ministry of Defence received information about falling meteorites a few days ago, but at that time, experts thought that meteorites would burn out before falling to the earth, so there was no alarm. It is estimated that this meteorite weighs 10 to 30 tons.

The staff of Chelyabinsk Zoo told the media that some animals in the zoo began to have abnormal reactions from the night of 14, among which wolves and horses reacted most violently. However, it is not clear whether the abnormal reaction of animals is related to the falling of meteorites.

This meteorite fall also allowed some Russians to find a way to make a fortune. According to Russian media reports, an hour after the meteorite fell, netizens sold so-called "meteorite fragments" on shopping websites. The netizen also has a picture of "meteorite fragments" in his hand, and also marked "selling meteorite fragments, new ones, Sergei, Chelyabinsk" in the product information. He offered 300,000 rubles, or about 6,543.8+0,000 dollars. However, this information was quickly deleted by the website.

The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations and the Emergency Prevention and Response System have started to work, and there are currently 20,000 staff members to handle the relevant situation. As of 10: 30 am, the background radiation level in the affected areas has not exceeded the standard, and public facilities such as electricity, communication and transportation are operating normally. Power supply peak appeared in some areas, but this problem has been solved. At present, there are three planes monitoring from the air. Every 30 minutes, the public can know the latest situation through hotline, internet and media. If there are any new problems, they will be solved in time.

At present, no one needs hospitalization, but all medical facilities are ready to provide medical assistance at any time.

Commentary: Some astronomy enthusiasts said on social networking sites that the asteroid 20 12DA 14 will fly to a place 27,700 kilometers away from the Earth, which is lower than the orbital height of the geosynchronous satellite. The falling meteorite in Russia may be a precursor to the asteroid approaching the earth. However, Russian astronomers denied this statement, because the flying direction of meteorites is from northeast to southwest, and 20 12DA 14 is almost "opposite" to the former.

Meteorites squeeze air when they fall. Just like a person jumping into the water from a very high place, the water seems hard. When objects fall from space to the earth, the air becomes "hard". Objects will explode when they are impacted by air. If the energy is high, the friction between the meteorite and the air lasts for tens of seconds, which is why a piece of smoke can be seen. This is what we saw in Chelyabinsk, with bright lights and thick smoke. Generally speaking, when a meteorite touches the lower atmosphere, it will explode.

Commentary: Baglov said that the phenomenon of celestial falling can be observed several times a year on the earth, but it is rare to fall into residential areas like this. He said that according to the current situation, the possibility of a second wave of meteorite shower in the near future is very low.

During the same period: Russian President Vladimir Putin

In the current world economic situation, the G-20 needs responsible and coordinated actions. There is no longer a regional and isolated crisis, and the fiscal policies adopted by some major economies in the world have already had an impact on the world economy. No country can stay out of the world economic process, and no country can face the challenge of modernization alone.

Commentary: Putin said that in order to cope with the crisis, the G-20 reached an agreement on taking coordinated measures to support economic development, including strictly restricting trade protectionism, formulating new financial supervision principles, and initiating the reform of international financial institutions. He believes that "whether it can effectively solve the long-term development problem and put forward policies and measures to get rid of the stagnation and uncertainty of the world economy is the main challenge facing the G 20 at present. The G 20 should explore new and effective means to eliminate imbalances and promote economic growth in all regions of the world. "

Putin pointed out that only by implementing clear and transparent deficit and national debt management policies can the government win the trust of investors. Therefore, Russia suggested that G20 should put investment and promote transparent and effective supervision on the agenda.

15 a two-day meeting of G20 finance ministers and central bank governors was held in Moscow. Russia holds the rotating presidency of G20 in 20 13, and the G20 summit will be held in St. Petersburg in September this year.

(Title) (Oral broadcast+photo) EU approves DNA sampling of beef products.

Moderator: On June 5438+05, local time, the relevant parties in the European Union approved the immediate DNA sampling inspection of beef products to cope with the "horse meat scandal" that spread to many European countries and restore consumer confidence. This sampling plan lasts for 1 month (which may be extended for another two months), and the testing costs are shared by the member States and the European Union.

Member States will conduct DNA sampling tests on beef products to determine whether they contain horse meat. The test samples will mainly come from the retail sector, with 2250 copies, and the test samples of each member country range from 10 to 150. In addition, member States should also test whether horse meat contains the drug Baotaisong which is harmful to human health. Every 50 tons of horse meat should be sampled and tested, and each member country should do at least 5 tests. According to the plan, the test results should be reported to the European Commission before April 15, which will be released by the European Commission through the EU's "Food and Feed Rapid Warning System" for the use of member States.

Recently, some beef products in Europe have been mixed with horse meat, which has caused heated discussion. The EU insists that the "horse meat scandal" is a product mislabeling problem, not a food safety incident, and consumers need not panic. (End)

The agency will complete the bid evaluation before the end of 20 14 1 and start the contract negotiation in February of the same year.

In recent years, abundant oil and natural gas resources have been discovered in the disputed Mediterranean Sea between Lebanon and Israel. The Lebanese government established the Petroleum Management Committee on 20 10, which is responsible for the development of oil and gas resources along the Lebanese coast. In 20 1 1 year, the Israeli government approved its plan for the delimitation of the exclusive economic zone in the Mediterranean and its maritime border with Lebanon, and prepared to submit it to the United Nations for consideration. This plan conflicts with the relevant plan previously submitted by Lebanon to the United Nations. In order to solve the maritime oil and gas disputes, Lebanon has repeatedly asked the United Nations to help Lebanon and Israel demarcate their maritime boundaries.

Lebanon does not produce oil at present, and its oil consumption depends on imports. In order to change this situation, the Lebanese government has taken measures to encourage foreign companies to engage in offshore and onshore oil and gas exploration in Lebanon.

Hot word 2: fireworks and PM2.5

Well, sometimes it's appropriate to put a little, for the Spring Festival.
