Thats Jupiters job afterall, to pull in dangerous objects away from the other planets due to its immense gravitational pull.

lol a baseball could do huge damage if it came from space
i would guess it to be that large because what ever hit it / happened has egnited the atmosphere their for making a huge flame, or their has been some wierd atmosphere activity like lightning which has egnited it. seeing as jupiter is a ball of gas.
Weird. That could be anything... :o
Ah, is that why it went dark and the ground shook a few hours ago? :P:P
