SOUTH CENTRAL IN — Scientists now have an explanation for what caused a large explosive sound that rattled South Central Indiana on Wednesday.
Decatur County residents reported hearing the loud blast, along with people in several other counties.
Scientists at Purdue University and the American Meteor Society (AMS) attribute the loud boom to a meteor explosion that usually happens when a fireball meteor enters the Earth’s atmosphere.
