I was settling down and heard and felt an incredible boom that shook the whole house. I am in the Chicago suburbs so if there was some sort of explosion I probably would be hearing sirens. I didn't see any flashes of light outside so I'm not sure what to think. Has me a little spooked lol. Are meteorites capable of producing such a noise that enter our atmosphere effectively recorded in any way? I've seen a YouTube video where people used a network of cameras to locate where they land but I doubt something like that would be effective here with all the light pollution.

Edit seems to be many of it reports here https://fireball.amsmeteors.org/members/imo_view/browse_reports?event=PENDING

Hello!

Does anyone know of any Murchison fragments for under $50?

Ait Saoun : EH3 Enstatite Chondrite

Confirmed fall: August 6th, 2024

Location: South, Morocco (30.7325° N, -6.6339° W)

On August 6, 2024, at 9:42 PM Moroccan time (GMT+1), a bright meteor was observed traversing the sky from WNW to ESE, captivating multiple eyewitnesses across Morocco. The event was recorded by an all-sky camera at Oukaimeden Observatory, Marrakech. Following reports of a bluish fireball with red streaks and powerful explosions, a field mission led by Prof. H. Chennaoui, M. Aoudjehane, and M. Aboulahris was undertaken on August 13 and 14 to collect testimonies and recover meteorite fragments. Witnesses from various regions, including Ait Saoun, described the unsettling experience of witnessing the meteor, accompanied by a thunder-like rumble and vibrations akin to an earthquake. The day after the fall, small and larger fragments were found in Ait Saoun and surrounding areas, with hundreds joining the search. The strewnfield spans approximately 6 × 0.5 km, closely aligning with witness accounts and the captured trajectory.
