It’s “you’re” not your.
And Jeff Daniels was the star.
Ain’t buying it.
Small meteor pieces which survive upper atmosphere re-entry fall for many thousands of feet at terminal velocity.
If you dropped a small red-hot rock from an airplane @ 50,000 feet it would be, at most, a bit warm upon reaching the ground.
Sorry, just another space poopy.
or if it had fallen from a passing airplane.
Blue ice .........
👍
Perfect! LOL
If any drain heater fails on any aircraft, a large clump of ice will form and the slipstream will dislodge it.
Don’t look up........................
I hope that they do not have State Farm as their homeowner’s insurance...
The rates will get jacked up and they won’t pay for any repairs...
At least that was my experience after hurricane Isabell left 5 foot of the Chesapeake Bay in the bottom floor and destroyed both of my boat docks...
There’s a lady that lives in my sister’s town that could identify not only if it’s a meteorite, but what kind (composition) it is. In some cases, bearing the size, even where it was orbiting before it entered the atmosphere and the date, time / approximate.
“ An Arkansas family who awoke to the smell of fire discovered a smoking hole in their deck — and they suspect a meteorite may have been to blame.”
When questioned, the meteorite claimed to have an alibi and pled the 5th.
That’s why there are Republicans staying in the nomination hunt.
SC reported a fallen meteor in West Virginia not too long ago. Apparently it left a few chunks in someone’s yard, at least ten or more miles away from where I was. I was outside digging in the garden when there was a huge explosion I figured about 2 miles away, across the hill and possibly in a local rock quarry. Perhaps some really strong dynomite. Everyone in our mile square community heard it and was commenting on it at a meeting we were all attending.
I think if it was a space rock falling on her deck she would have heard it loud and clear.
If they were home at the time.
The article said they smelled smoke and woke up. Even a small meteor would have made a big noise. Maybe it was a piece of space junk falling out of orbit.
The sound of that hole being formed might be about as loud as a two cars crashing a mile away.
If there’s no mineral residue from the impactor, it was probably ice.
