My science teacher said that once there was this meteorite. It travelled faster than the speed of light (I think) but it travelled really fast inside the Earth's atmosphere until it started cracking while it was travelling. Cracks make sound (obviously) but the sounds were so loud while it was travelling. Those sounds are called sonic booms. So I don't think you can see them.
