About two weeks ago there was a pipeline explosion in Texas.

The pipeline was a 36-inch natural gas line.  The explosion was felt for 60 miles, and could be seen for 175 miles.  Sure, that part of Texas is pretty flat, but that’s still pretty big.

Here’s some video from ABC13.

The pipeline is owned by Kinder-Morgan.  The area was very rural, so no lives or property were threatened by this one.
