Stars really fell for a Villiscan recently, according to a story in Villisca Review.

George Rhamy of Villisca reports that what appears to be a meteorite fell right in his garden.

The stone, triangular in shape and about 3 1/2 inches long with a base 2 inches in length on each side, seared a path through several hills of tomatoes, beets, and beans.

The ground was baked around where the stone fell and a sulphur-like odor came from the hole it made when Rhamy pulled it up, he reported.
