A meteoroid hit a Houston home. Yes, you read that correctly! āļø
If you heard a big āboomā or thought you saw a shooting star around 3-4pm, today, that quick flash in the sky wasnāt small at allāit was a 3-foot space rock, about a ton, burning up as it tore through Earthās atmosphere. Crazy to think about.
NASA says it was moving close to 35,000 mph, first visible high above Stagecoach before breaking apart over the Cypress area.
When it came apart, it released energy comparable to 26 tons of TNTā enough to create the boom people heard across parts of Houston.

Passenges flying out of Houston are facing long, winding TSA linesā so long, Airport staff are now handing out water to people waiting in security.
At both George Bush, Intercontinental, Airport and William P hobby Airport, travelers report delay delays, judging hours with only a limited number of general screening lanes open at times. Some airlines have delayed flights as a result.
Houston Airports staff confirmed this is a direct result of a staffing shortage due to the current partial government shutdown, and TSA workers being asked to show up and work with no pay.
