Meteorite fall zone identified northeast of Maryborough, Victoria Australia after fireball

"A bright meteor streaked across the night sky over Victoria creating a stunning fireball
display that was seen by residents across the state. The visual spectacle was followed by a powerful sonic boom that rattled windows and shook buildings across central Victoria. Scientists are now searching for fragments of the space rock, which they believe survived its fiery descent and landed on the ground.

Geoscience Australia confirmed that it received multiple felt reports around 19:40 LT in the Bendigo area but recorded no seismic event, indicating that the shaking was caused by a meteor-generated sonic boom rather than an earthquake." W
