History of the fall: A fireball was first noticed in northern Hungary above the town now called Liptovský Mikuláš and flew some 220 km to the east until exploded with thunderous detonation above Knyahinya, producing a black cloud. A shower of stones fell from the cloud with a whizzing noise. Then the black cloud turned to a grey cloud of dust, moving southward and dispersed by the wind. Some 1200 stones fell in a ~7×4 km strewn field in the vicinity of Zboj (now Slovakia), Nova Stuzhitsya, Knyahinya and Strychava (now Ukraine) but nobody was injured. The Hungarian Academy of Sciences sent a commission to visit the scene. The largest recovered specimen (now in the Natural History Museum in Vienna) weighed some 300 kg, the second largest (46 kg) one was bought for 750 florins for the Hungarian National Museum (destroyed by fire in 1956).
