50 years ago today, 1955: The Air Defense Filter Center in Grand
Rapids identified a flying object as a meteorite. The brilliant
green fireball streaking through the sky at about 9:15 p.m.
prompted calls to police from all around southwest Michigan,
including Battle Creek. The meteorite was believed to have
plunged into Lake Michigan.
