2024 New York fireball
On July 15, 2024, a meteor crashed through Earth's atmosphere over New York creating a rare[1][2] daylight fireball.[1][2][3] The daylight fireball was reported around 1:15 PM EDT after eyewitnesses described it as a bright, fast-moving object streaking across the sky with a visible tail traveling at a speed of 38,000 mph west into New Jersey.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Numerous observers reported experiencing a sonic boom and slight ground shaking shortly after the fireball's passage, which NASA suggested may have been caused by the daylight fireball, but remains unconfirmed.[1][2] The American Meteor Society (AMS) received over 40 reports of the event from witnesses in New York and neighboring states.[7]
