The story is initially set at Mr. Fontain's residence and the story then shifts onto the planet forta where we learn about an alien and his specoes. After giving a description of forta the author again shifts the story back to earth where an investigation is taking place of a myserious object which appeared from the sky. This process is repeated 6 times when the story finally ends in Mr. Fontain's out house.

Summary of the story on METEOR by john wyndham?

John Wyndham (1903-1969) Meteor While John Wyndham has been described disparagingly as 'the master of the middleclass catastrophe', it can be argued that he uses his settings of comfortable middle England to bring his science fiction stories uncomfortably close to his readers. This is certainly true of perhaps his most famous novel, The Day of the Triffids. The structure of Meteor, juxtaposing two separate but connected narratives, demonstrates this concern, as one of the narratives shows a group of people in a domestic setting examining a strange object, while the second narrative is a scientific journal which includes unfamiliar terms and references. As the story develops, the reader begins to see the connections between the two narratives. The amazingly advanced technology of the visitors is gradually revealed as well as their peaceable intentions, while their perspective on the human world demonstrates not only their puzzlement but gives indications as to their size. Having established this, Wyndham's conclusion of the story is shocking.
