NASA has released a "strewn field" map of where meteorites may have fallen after a rare daytime fireball explosively disintegrated in the skies over Houston on Saturday (March 21) evening — with the force of 26 tons of TNT.

Houston residents reported hearing loud booms as pressure waves brought about by the meteor's demise reached the ground at 5:40 p.m. EDT (21:40 GMT), following its brief but fiery descent.
