        "summary": "NASA confirmed a natural meteor exploded over the northeastern United States on Saturday, with an energy release equivalent to 300 tons of TNT. Local residents reported shaking houses, though no injuries were reported. The event, unrelated to any meteor shower, echoes the 2013 Chelyabinsk incident which caused widespread damage and injuries.",
        "content": "<p>NASA reported a meteor that entered Earth\u2019s atmosphere and exploded\nover the northeastern United States on Saturday. The fireball was not\nassociated with any current meteor shower but was a natural object, not\nspace debris or a satellite re-entry, said Jennifer Dooren, NASA\u2019s\nDeputy Chief News Officer, according to AFP on Sunday (31 May 2026). The\nenergy released upon explosion was estimated at around 300 tons of TNT,\nexplaining the loud blast, she added. She said the fireball exploded\nover northeastern Massachusetts and southeastern New Hampshire at 14:06\n(18:06 GMT). NASA confirmed the fireball was a natural object. Dooren\nstated the meteor was travelling at 75,000 mph (over 120,000 km\/h) at an\naltitude of 40 miles when it exploded. Local residents were alarmed by\nthe unexpected loud blast, with social media users reporting that the\nexplosion was strong enough to shake houses. In 2013, a fireball\nstreaked over Chelyabinsk, Russia. A space rock the size of a house\nexploded 14 miles above ground, releasing a blast equivalent to 440,000\ntons of TNT, according to NASA. The blast shattered windows across an\narea exceeding 200 square miles (518 square kilometres) and injured over\n1,600 people, mostly from broken glass.<\/p>",
