Remnants of a meteor that exploded over New England on Saturday afternoon landed in the middle of Cape Cod Bay. 

According to NASA, the fireball fragmented above northeast Massachusetts and southeast New Hampshire at around 75-thousand-miles-per-hour, releasing an energy equivalent of close to 300-tons of TNT, causing a loud boom.  NASA officials say the water depth at the fall site is rou.ghly 100-feet. 

According to NASA, the fireball was not associated with an active meteor shower or the re-entry of space debris or a satellite.  NASA says the object was a bolide - a bright meteor that exploded in Earth's atmosphere.
