NASA on Friday published satellite photos of a powerful meteor which appeared just above the Bering Sea on December 18 but went unnoticed until months later.   The explosion unleashed around 173 kilotons of energy, more than 10 times that of the atomic bomb blast over Hiroshima in World War II.   Images captured minutes after the fireball disintegrated in the atmosphere show the shadow of the meteor's trail cast on top of clouds, elongated by the sun's low position.   The super-heated air turns the clouds to an orange tint in the meteor's wake.   The photographs were taken by two NASA instruments on board the Terra satellite.   A still image was taken at 2350 GMT, while five of the of nine cameras

MANILA: Philippine boxing legend Manny Pacquiao took to social media to poll millions of fans on who they think should be his next opponent, having brushed off calls to hang up his gloves after turning 40. “Who should I fight next?” the world's only eight-division champion asked in a Twitter survey that drew 27,380 votes after five hours and listed Floyd Mayweather, Keith Thurman, Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter as the choices.

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: Pakistani waiter Rozi Khan had never heard of the Game of Thrones - or its hugely popular character Tyrion Lannister - until his striking resemblance to the dwarf anti-hero got heads turning at home. The 25-year-old so resembles actor Peter Dinklage - who has played the witty and wily nobleman since the hit series' first season in 2010 - that he gets regularly stopped by strangers desperate for a picture. Not only are Khan and Dinklage's faces strikingly similar, they are also the same height at around 135 cms (4 ft 5in). The television series has won 47 Emmys - more than any other fictional show in history - along with a Golden Globe for Dinklage, 49, for best supporting actor in 2012.
