I doubt it. The trajectory of meteor was very close to be horizontal, so it could make revolution('s) around the Earth and fly opposite direction to asteroid known as 2012 DA14, being a remnants of 2012 DA14.
Drakkith said:Unless you've done the math to determine the orbital characteristics of the meteor and compared them to 2012 DA14, then I will take NASA's opinion over yours. And even then I probably still would.
The chance that the meteor was related to 2012 DA14 and happened to be pulled into an approach trajectory that is completely opposite of what it was prior to its encounter with the Earth is very remote, if not impossible.

You see shallow trajectory. To have shallow trajectory is ALMOST impossible! But it DOES real!
Drakkith said:Probability is an very important part of science.
Please provide a reference stating the meteors trajectory. Then we can discuss it.
M@2 said:But what about meteor, being a member of "2012 DA14 asteroid belt" (in some sense), made 1/2 revolt around the Earth chandged the direction of motion?
My reputable source is my education.micromass said:We have many reputable sources stating that the two are unrelated.
Do you have any reputable source arguing that there is a relation between the two?? If not, then this thread is over.
Drakkith said:... I don't think they Earth's gravitational pull is strong enough to completely change the trajectory of the meteor BEFORE it hits the atmosphere. Not if it was traveling at a similar velocity to 2012 DA14.

Do You have reputable source publications?
I don't think "reputable" source can publish "reputable" article with "reputable" data about Russian meteor in one day.
Have you russian anti-missile system data already?
In 1961 we shot down american spy plane U-2 about the same place.
There were data that we, russians, tryed to shot down meteor :)
The Russian meteor, also known as the Chelyabinsk meteor, was a large meteor that entered Earth's atmosphere on February 15, 2013 and exploded over the city of Chelyabinsk in Russia. It caused significant damage and injuries to people and buildings in the area.
2012 DA14 is an asteroid that was discovered in 2012. It has a diameter of approximately 30 meters and orbits around the sun every 368 days. It has been classified as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid due to its close proximity to Earth.
No, there is no direct connection between the Russian meteor and 2012 DA14. They are two separate objects that entered Earth's atmosphere on the same day.
No, the trajectory of the Russian meteor was significantly different from the trajectory of 2012 DA14. Additionally, the Russian meteor exploded in the atmosphere, while 2012 DA14 passed by Earth at a safe distance.
There is a very low possibility of a future impact from 2012 DA14. Scientists have been closely monitoring its trajectory and have determined that it poses no threat to Earth in the foreseeable future.
