The meteor that lit up the sky of southern Wisconsin on April 14 and created an international buzz now has a name.
The Meteoritical Society has aptly named it the Mifflin Meteorite, named after the town on which many of the pieces were found. The area is about 65 miles west of Madison in Iowa County just south of Montfort.
