While trimming my shrubs the other day, I found where a small, 'stone like' object had gone thru the screen and broken the outside layer of one of my thermopane windows. It dropped to the bottom of the window, between the screen and remaining layer of glass where it remains. It is about 1/4 the size of a golf ball.
I don't have any landscaping stone on my property. Nor does it appear to be a like any landscaping stone on any of my surrounding neighbors' property so I doubt if it would have been propelled by a lawn mower. While the idea of it actually being a meteorite seems a little 'far-fetched', it does seem plausible. So, I'm trying to get in contact with a Villager who might be able to tell if it is a meteorite or not. If you can help, please send a PM to me. Thanks. |

It's amazing what you find after the landscapers leave..
They mow 100's of lawns and my opinion that where weeds and different types of grass spread from home to home

Because meteorites are more common, as these things go anyway, we looked at the chances of your house being struck by a meteorite. We found that your house has a 1 in 2,196,267,379,587 (that’s trillion, fyi) chance of being struck by a meteorite. I would imagine the odds of a rock being thrown by landscaping equipment are substantially less |

An Egret passed a kidney stone while flying by your home. Happens all the time.

If it's magnetic, it's a meteorite. If it's not magnetic, it's a stone.

This thread has me on the edge of my seat. Well, is it magnetic?
