As well as impossible. This was until the massive fall onto L'Aigle in France of thousands of meteorites on April 23rd 1803. Previously on November 11th 1799 there had also been a massive meteor shower comprising thousands of meteors that was seen all over the Earth. This is now known to be the Leonid Meteors whose falls have diminished since. The Leonids come around every November, usually near the beginning of the month. Funny how this is a peak period for UFO sightings!\u003cbr\u003eThat was accepted meteorites. \u003cbr\u003eThen you have such things as Black Comets. Black comets are extinct cometery nuclei which no longer create outgassing. No tail is visible. They are black and difficult to see in space unless they are passing celestial bodies. Even these seem apparently normal when you look at everything that has come crashing down, sometimes heavily and sometimes lightly, from the skies.\u003cbr\u003eAmongst the true meteorites and possible fragment of black comets, and possibly even antimatter, and even large blocks of ice, what then are the rest of these?\u003cbr\u003eWhat are events of spontaneous combustion?\u003cbr\u003eWhat are falls of non-meteoric stone?\u003cbr\u003eWhat are all of these bizarre non-classifiable events from falling animals, that normally are not airborne to terrestrial stones crashing down from the heavens.\u003cbr\u003eRead on and be amazed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Mitrovic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798490144663\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/05\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.74d","brand":"George Mitrovic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48089236766975,"sku":"9798490144663","price":23.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6c410dc4-3fbf-44ee-ac28-f0720a532a13.jpg?v=1769109009","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/strange-falls-spontaneous-combustion-and-george-mitrovic-9798490144663","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
