2008 TC3 (Catalina Sky Survey temporary designation 8TA9D69) was a meteoroid 2 to 5 meters (7 to 16 ft) in diameter that entered Earth's atmosphere on October 7, 2008, at 02:46 UTC (5:46 a.m. local time).[1] It exploded an estimated 37 kilometers (23 mi) above the Sudan desert. Searches of the impact zone later turned up 8.7 pounds (3.9 kg) of rocks full of minuscule diamonds in 280 fragments, which were leftovers from the meteoroid.
