Kind of Interesting

According to The Australian, a meteorite, “as big as a house,” hit Australia the other night.

"A METEORITE reportedly the size of a house fell on the NSW south coast overnight, exploding in a bright flash, police have said."

Unfortunately,

""We went out to check if it was something bad, like a plane,” said a police spokesman.

“However we didn’t find anything - there was no bloody great rock sitting in the middle of the highway, anyway”.

You have to enjoy the understatement in that statement.  The meteorite would be a “bloody great rock” to stumble over.

“‘House-sized’ meteorite hits."
