Meteor Travelling At 75,000 MPH Explodes Over US, Triggering Loud Sonic Booms

A fast-moving meteor exploded over the northeastern US, making loud booms that shook homes. NASA said the meteor was about 3 feet wide and traveling at 75,000 mph. It broke apart 40 miles up, releasing energy like 300 tons of TNT. This was a natural space rock, not debris.
