CHELYABINSK, Russia, Feb. 25 (UPI) -- Scientists say they have recovered the largest fragment yet found, weighing about 2.2 pounds, of the meteor that exploded over Russia Feb. 15.
It's the largest of more than 100 meteorite fragments that have been found by an expedition from the Urals Federal University searching along a 30-mile trail along the object's flight path, expedition leader Viktor Grokhovsky told RIA Novosti Monday.
