A fireball can travel at varying speeds depending on its size and the conditions of its environment. For example, a typical fireball from a meteor entering Earth's atmosphere can reach speeds of 20,000 to 70,000 miles per hour (32,000 to 112,000 kilometers per hour). In contrast, a fireball created by an explosion, such as in a nuclear detonation, can expand rapidly but its speed is more about the blast wave than the fireball itself. Overall, fireballs can exhibit extremely high velocities, often making them appear as brief, bright streaks in the sky.
