Northeast Ohio is still buzzing after a 6-foot, 17,000-pound meteor soared across the sky on Tuesday morning before breaking apart in a "boom" heard across the area.

According to the National Weather Service, the loud sonic boom was caused by the meteor. A NASA spokesperson spoke with reporter Clay LePard, confirming the meteor was spotted nea

Three asteroids namely 2026 FA asteroid, 2026 EF2 asteroid and 2026 ED3 asteroid, will fly near Earth on March 19, 2026. NASA tracks them closely and confirms all flybys are not harmful to planet Earth.

For 20 years, NASA’s ALaMO Observatory has tracked meteors and lunar impacts, providing continuous data on space hazards and asteroid research from Huntsville, Alabama.

NASA managed to miss a meteor explosion over Cleveland, Ohio, on Tuesday (March 17), not long after a scientist explained why it's impossible to track each and every one. The blast, which produced a shockwave equivalent to around 250 tons of TNT, came from an object just two metres wide and weighing roughly seven tonnes, as National Today reports.

NASA’s NEO Surveyor telescope will launch in 2027 to find dangerous asteroids that current telescopes miss, strengthening planetary defense.

Two asteroids namely VO142 and 2026 EZ2 will fly past safely on March 17. NASA is monitoring both closely for science and safety.

According to the space agency's tracking, the rock is hurtling through space at more than 21,500 miles per hour.
