We’ve mentioned it before, this week’s top story was the meteorite fragment that hit Russia’s Chelyabinsk region, causing destruction and wounding hundreds of persons. We thought such a topic would generate a reasonable number of interactive visualizations, but that was not the case – or, at least, we couldn’t find them, please let us know if we missed some.
Therefore, today’s selection is, once more, a giant mix of interactive visualizations. Hope you enjoy it!
