Second mass stranding at Cape Cod, third in region

2026, July 13. USA, Massachusetts, Cape Cod, specifically spanning the shallow flats between First Encounter Beach in Eastham and Ellis Landing/First Light Beach in Brewster. A mass stranding of approximately 34 bottlenose dolphins. Six died before a rescue team arrived, with the others refloated on the incoming tide. Similarities to the 2024 Event: On 2024, June 28. A mass stranding of approximately 146 Atlantic white-sided dolphins, considered a more strictly offshore, pelagic species. This event occurred exactly 20 days after the June 8 fireball that entered the atmosphere over Georges Bank east of Nantucket Island.

Trajectory initiated over the Java Sea, crossing southeast over parts of Java Island (including Bekasi, Majalengka, Nagreg, Tasikmalaya, and Yogyakarta). The meteor continued to move southeast until it lost its speed, possibly ending in the Indian Ocean, south of East Java or Bali. Sonic Boom: The eastern part of West Java, some residents of Cirebon and Kuningan reported hearing a booming sound shortly after the meteor passed. The National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) estimate the trajectory concluded with an airburst deceleration or impact over the Indian Ocean, south of East Java or Bali.
