The New England event came just days after a bright meteor was reported over Western New York during the early morning hours of May 27.

NASA said the meteor that exploded over Cape Cod Bay was five feet in diameter and was traveling 42,000 miles per hour.

Officials with the American Meteor Society and NASA say a double boom heard in multiple states Saturday afternoon was a 3-foot meteor entering the atmosphere near the Massachusetts and New Hampshire border.

A meteor exploded over Massachusetts at the end of May. Numerous people recorded the loud sonic boom and posted the videos on social media.

The meteorite​ that caused a sonic boom heard throughout Massachusetts on Saturday ​landed "right in the middle of Cape Cod Bay," NASA researchers​ say.

A meteor that exploded off the coast of Massachusetts set off a loud boom equivalent to 300 tons of TNT, NASA said.

A meteor exploded over New England Saturday afternoon, creating a daytime fireball and a massive “double boom” that shook local homes. The American Meteor Society reported the space rock puncture the atmosphere around 2:30 p.

Multiple videos show a rare "fireball" meteor breaking apart with a flash of emerald light over the erupting Mount Mayon. Initial reports suggested that the falling space rock hit the volcano, but this was untrue.
