Fireball Meteorite Flashes Across Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Roof Hit

News summary

A bright fireball, likely a meteorite, was observed streaking across the sky in several Southeastern U.S. states including Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee. The event occurred around midday and prompted over 100 sightings reported to the American Meteor Society. Satellite data and videos from Greenville, South Carolina, and other areas showed a streak of smoke trailing the object as it moved through the atmosphere. The meteorite reportedly crashed through a roof in Henry County, Georgia, and officials in Anderson County, South Carolina, are actively searching for a crash site. Multiple fire departments responded to the incident as investigations continue to confirm the exact nature and impact location of the fireball. This celestial phenomenon follows a similar sighting of a fireball over Western Australia earlier this year.
