Sonics Reported!
I think this hit near my house.. I heard a rumble and my house shook at this time and I've been Googling looking for accidents or explosions in my area but maybe this was it
I have been search the net for a blast or explosion near my house at the time. Friend also commented of bright flash near my house and I felt a vibration and my house rattled. Is it possible this meteor was the cause? Chad C.

Initial Meteor Sighting Reports-28MAY2014 Jack Scott TYNTYNDER SOUTH, VIC, AUST APPROX 2200AEST 3 seconds First observed at approx 20 DEG ELEV, 010 DEG AZIMUTH. Travelling straight down., White flash over northern hemisphere of sky caught my attention then looked up to see orange shaft proceed quickly down to horizon. No sound was noticed. Initial flash was similar to lightning when close by, followed by bright orange shaft toward horizon and glow in surrounding clouds. None observed Oberved passing through layers of distant cloud. Orange shaft appeared about half the thickness of a pencil when held at arms length.

28MAY2014 Angela Cowra, NSW, Australia approx 2200 AEST Only saw last 2-3 secs before impact. Facing west, came from north (right to left) but more vertical than horizontal Fireball was orange with long blue tail. Impact light was a bright dome that clearly showed the outline of the hills and vegetation in the horizon between us and the impact point. Heard no sound, but eerie silence and stillness after impact. No vibrations felt either. Brighter than a full moon. After impact, bright white/blueish light (like extreme lightning, but sky was clear). None seen No idea how far impact was from us ...

28MAY2014 josh scott Kyabram, victoria, australia, post code 3620 2152 10 east to west fireball with trail like plane on fire // . I was traveling north in my car saw a bright orange fire ( fireball with a tail) in the sky at approx 25 - 35 degrees decent angle. Travelling from east to west. At approx 10 pm. Austrailia time. no fireball decending over northern victoria

28MAY2014 Stuart Moss Beveridge, Victotia, Australia 21:52, Eastern Standared Time, PM 1.5 -2.5 seconds It was to the North, It traveiled in a vertical direction straight down. It past through the clouds and appered to continue on to the ground. As it past through the clouds, the sky light up a bright fire yellow. No sound heard The Fire ball was red and yellow with a long yellow tail. It lit up the sky bright yellow as it past through the cloud. None seen. I'm guessing it was 150Km away I think it may have hit the ground.

between wellington and molong in NSW
I saw an incredible flame of light just as it disapeared behind a hill whilst driving between wellington and molong in NSW at about 955 pm it was to the west of this road and had fallen from the north. I only saw it for a very short period as it actually gave me a fright when i caught it in my perriferal vision and turned to see it whilst driving. My passenger and i thought that it was literally just over the hill from where we were. It was amazing to see. Nick

BALLARAT, Victoria, Australia Fireball Meteor 25MAY2014 Likely Produced Meteorites! A$100 Pizza Offered for Video of Event

BALLARAT, Victoria, Australia Fireball Meteor 25MAY2014 Likely Produced Meteorites!
A$100 Pizza Offered for Video of THIS Meteor Event

On Sunday the 25th May at 6:25pm (AEST) a large fireball meteor was seen blazing over the skies of Victoria. It was seen to break into several pieces, and a sonic boom was heard around the Daylesford and Yandoit areas. This indicates relatively large meteorite/s may have fallen to the ground in the area.

I am requesting CCTV, dashcam or webcam footage from anywhere in Melbourne, Ballarat, Bendigo or surrounding areas that show this fireball streaking through the sky. Footage will need to have a time stamp to confirm authenticity and to help with calculating a fall location.

Please check your outdoor CCTV footage of any cameras with a view of the sky facing the west or north on 25th may 2014 at 6:25pm, plus or minus 10 minutes.

Fresh meteoritic material can help with planetary research, understanding how the solar system was created, and possibly even explaining how life began. The Murchison meteorite that fell to the ground in 1969 was rich in complex organic compounds, and is one of the most studied meteorite falls in history.

A meteorite can be identified by a black outer appearance, a fusion crust caused by high speed entry into the earth's atmosphere, and at least one side of the meteorite may be rounded. When hunting meteorites, please respect the owners of private land, and ask their permission to search for meteorites first.

Please IF you witnessed this event file a Meteor Sighting Report 
http://lunarmeteoritehunters.blogspot.jp/2000/11/meteor-fireball-report-form.html

Reports of the fireball sighting submitted by Victorians can be found here. http://thelatestworldwidemeteorreports.blogspot.com.au

I am personally prepared to offer a $100 pizza order for the first person, business, school or organisation that provides authentic footage of the fireball. All offers of footage that show the fireball will be accepted, although only the first one gets the pizza!  Please contact me on 0490 193 772 before submitting your footage.

Professor Phil Bland from Curtin University (08 9266 9763) and Dr Andy Tomkins from Monash University (03 9905 1643) can be contacted for more information about their research in Australian meteorite material.
