A huge fireball blazed across the sky of the northeast United States and Canada early on Tuesday morning.

The American Meteor Society (AMS) has mapped hundreds of reported fireball sightings that stretched from Ontario to New Jersey.

The AMS has not confirmed the cause of the bright flash of light but the Maine Mineral and Gem Museum has offered a $20,000 reward for any surviving meteor fragments.
