NASA Confirms Meteor Over Pennsylvania and New Jersey, Disintegrates at 30,000 mph
A meteor was observed traveling over Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware, moving at a speed of 30,000 miles per hour before disintegrating. According to NASA, the meteor was first visible 48 miles above the Atlantic Ocean near Long Island, New York, and traveled 117 miles through the atmosphere before breaking apart 27 miles above Galloway, New Jersey. The American Meteor Society reported that over 200 people across several states, including Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut, witnessed the event. Witnesses described seeing a bright light and hearing a sonic boom, a common occurrence when meteors travel at hypersonic speeds.
