Eyewitnesses in several states filed reports of another bright meteor Monday evening.
According to the NASA Meteor oid Environments Office, witnesses in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin and the Canadian providence filed reports on the American Meteor Society website of the fireball.
This is the second meteor sighting in Ohio after a meteor lit up skies in Northeast Ohio last week on March 19. The meteor in Northeast Ohio traveled more than 34 miles through the atmosphere before breaking up, with fragments falling to the ground above Medina County.According to NASA, the fireball Monday evening was detected by several cameras in the region, and an analysis of the video data put the first detection of 42 miles above Hope, Michigan. NASA said the meteor moved northeast at 29,000 miles per hour, and disintegrated 23 miles above Saginaw Bay in Michigan, just east of Whites Beach.At its peak, it was reported that the fireball was caused by a piece of asteroid about 4 inches in diameter and weighed around 1 pound.Another meteor was seen in the region six minutes before this event at 9:25 p.m., but it was fainter and there is less data, NASA said.“A shared experience, the sound of meteors, something from space coming in,” Reynolds said. “It’s a big deal. How often does this happen, very rarely.”Tens of thousands of people heard and felt an explosion all over Northeast Ohio and into Pennsylvania and New York Tuesday morning.NASA said people reported seeing the March 19 fireball in places as far as Ontario, Canada. There were also witnesses in Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and the District of Columbia for the March 19 meteor.‘We will miss her terribly’: Sports reporter, her 3 children and family dog found dead in house fireAuthorities searching for middle school secretary accused of sexually abusing studentStaying with NOPEC?
