Meteor Confirmed As Cause Of Loud Boom In Quebec, Ontario http://theviralpost.com/meteor-confirmed-as-cause-of-loud-boom-in-quebec-ontario/
It’s now confirmed: the loud boom and flash of light many people spotted Tuesday evening from Montreal as far west as Ottawa was a meteor entering the earth’s atmosphere.
Researchers at the University of Western Ontario said the rock from space passed over Montreal at around 8 p.m. from north to south.
They were able to confirm the phenomenon by sounds from shock waves picked up by acoustic ground sensors around Montreal and upper New York state.
NASA’s Meteor Environment Office had been searching for footage of a meteor captured by its cameras, but cameras were obscured by thick clouds.
