Happens a couple of times every year.
In 2008, asteroid 2008 TC3 was actually found in deep space, and tracked to an impact in Etheopia.

I'm sooo bummed that I missed that one last night. I used to watch the meteor showers & the stars/sky in general but now we live in an area with way too much light.
