A brecciated ordinary chondrite (LL4-6), fell 24 October 2024.
"A bright bolide was observed by thousands of eyewitnesses over Austria and neighboring countries. Within 24 h, the strewn field was calculated based on data of the European Fireball Network (P. Spurny, Czech Republic). Five fragments of the fall were recovered over the following 8 weeks within the predicted fall ellipse: 8.76 g found on November 2, 2024, 8 days after the fall event, by Leon Thannheiser; 3.486 g found on November 3, 2024; a 46 g piece also found in early November (sold by the finder to a private collector); 28.61 g (which hit the roof of a house) recognized on December 29, 2024; and, finally, 64 g found on April 5, 2025" (MetBull page)
