Fireball explodes in GA.
2025-06-27
A series of really load booms and a fireball splintering were seen from Atlanta to Ft. Gordon Ga around 6-26-25

It had many seeing it, wondering if we had incoming from, NK, Russia, or Iran.

NO pre-alert, alarms or warnings were given to the public.
So much for Space Watch.
[TikTok] Meteorite crashes to Earth.

These are videos I found online of the meteor today that passed over the eastern United States.

Around 12:24–12:30 p.m. Eastern Time on June 26, 2025, a bright fireball streaked across the sky over parts of Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee. The event was captured on multiple cameras and witnessed by hundreds. A flash was detected by satellite, and a loud sonic boom was reported across several counties.

The meteor is believed to have exploded midair near the Georgia–South Carolina border, and officials are investigating possible impact sites. NASA-affiliated scientists confirmed a meteorite fall near Blacksville, Georgia, and searches are underway for debris. The phenomenon lit up the sky in broad daylight and was powerful enough to rattle homes and trigger emergency calls.

#1  We were and are up here about 8 miles from the Blacksville / McDonough area of the stated impact. It was a loud sonic boom sound, several times and the blast waves shook the Metal building warehouse area down here in Locust Grove Ga.
