Interesting, but I certainly do not believe that a
meteorite can start a fire, unless it ruptures a gas
tank or something like that.

I guess too, that the reports, that fallen stones, would be hot is rather
based on the common misconception, that meteorites and falling stars,
because they cause such light phenomena, have to be red-hot and glowing.

Hi All:
My two cents.
We had are usual asteroid lunch today (discuss them and other related
topics, not eat them). I brought up this topic. Among others there was me,

are cold inside since the typical asteroid probably

We all agreed that meteorites
will be cold (or at least very cool) when they land. The effects of
heating due to entry and fusion crust formation should be gone in
tens
of seconds (while they are still falling). So their temperature on the
ground should reflect their ambient temperature in

young my older brother convinced me that I had to undergo an initiation in
