Sounds like the beginning of an alien invasion movie. Sleeper ships buried themselves into every state. Waiting for the mother ship to arrive.
- thombat 4mo agoFeels like a proper movie that political boundaries like state lines would be significant for all concerned. One meteor for Rhode Island, one for Texas... Any questions? (Asks the alien overlord of his minions in his crisp British accent)
- Sharlin 4mo agoThe rest of the world, if they’re even mentioned in the plot, get one per country at most.

- SideburnsOfDoom 4mo ago> Interesting this also happened in South Carolina and Ohio within the past few months. Not that interesting, apparently this scale of meteor happens on average multiple times a year, just not usually over such an urban area. The 2013 Chelyabinsk meteor (1) was larger and caused ground damage and injuries from e.g. flying glass from broken windows. > Sounds like the beginning of an alien invasion movie. Sleeper ships buried themselves into every state. Based on the last Alien invasion book that I read (2), it would rather start with air bursting the bioweapons, spreading the plagues to weaken us. Which ah, also fits this incident. 1) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelyabinsk_meteor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelyabinsk_meteor 2) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_Against_the_Chtorr https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_Against_the_Chtorr https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Screwfly_Solution https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Screwfly_Solution
- mrhottakes 4mo agoI think it's pretty interesting when something happens that rarely occurs in a populated area.
- SideburnsOfDoom 4mo agoIt's interesting in the personal sense that I have read multiple news articles about it, and checked to see if people heard it (they did). It's not interesting in the scientific sense of being an outlier, unusual and noteworthy. It isn't, it's a common enough occurrence.
