A bright fireball streaked north across Colorado last Tuesday night that was captured by a number of cameras that monitor for such events. The asteroid was estimated to be about the size of a basketball or a small file cabinet and was presumed to burn completely up upon entry.
The Denver Post posted this information about the meteor. It was also visible in Northwestern Kansas and Nebraska. In these states, a loud sonic boom was heard and the object was reported to have broken up into several pieces as it sped across the skies at about 76,000 miles per hour.
