A large fireball engulfed Seoul, the capital of South Korea yesterday, killing hundreds of thousands and rendering the city radioactive. The South Korean government, or what's left of it have opened an investigation of the incident, which may have been caused by a celestial object or perhaps a sewer gas explosion. Officials said the incident will be throughly investigated and have cautioned against speculation that North Korea could be to blame.
