It was one of several recent fireballs tracked by #satellites, doorbell #cameras, and dashcams – our accidental planetary #defense network. University of #Maine planetarium director Shawn Laatsch explains how friction, shock waves, and #sonicbooms work, and why your odds of being hit by a #meteorite are near zero.
