Hello John, Interesting concept indeed! I recall to having read, in the early 60's, when I was around 16 yrs old, a small sicence fiction pocket book (soft cover), where eventually, a spacecraft manned by humans, after travelling far away into our space, they realized that they had come out of through a sore of this beautiful woman's knee! No story about meteorites, anyway! It was written by some american (or english ?) writer. I do not remeber the book's title but it belonged to the "Argonaut" series/collection (translated to Portuguese edition). José
