A meteor entered the atmosphere on tuesday night leaving six states and Ontario in awe. which ranged from western Pennsylvania, Winser, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, llinois and Wisconsin

Some peoples thoughts were.
Thunder and lightning?
Some sort of midair explosion?
An enemy airstrike?

With a rumble and a light that shook the six states. NASA officials say that the meteor entered the atmosphere at 8:08 p.m.
The burst of light was caused by a small asteroid about one to two yards in diameter, moving at 28,000 mph. About 355 report came in of the flash.

Localy I saw the flash but did not here a boom. My dad was walking the dog at the time and saw what he thought was a flare behind the neighborhood houses into the common area and farmland. :):)
