The speed of this fireball was amazing as in relation to planes in the sky that I was watching prior to seeing the fireball. It was also very big from my point of view and I'm pretty sure it was very far away from me.

About 3 minutes after the fireball I heard about 4 or 5 booms successive booms with about 0.50 seconds between them.
