What else can I help you with?
Will Alyssa milono be my friend?
Well maybe you should get her name right first.
Has anyone ever been killed by a meteorite?
Yes. There is at least one documented case of a meteor passing through a human. The individual, who remains nameless, was killed when a meteor passed through his chest. Death was instantaneous.1420 BC Israel - Fatal meteorite impact.588 AD China - 10 deaths; siege towers destroyed.1321-68 China - People & animals killed; homes ruined.1369 Ho-t'ao China - Soldier injured; fire.02/03/1490 Shansi, China - 10,000 deaths.09/14/1511 Cremona, Italy - Monk, birds, & sheep killed.1633-64 Milono, Italy - Monk killed.1639 China - Tens of deaths; 10 homes destroyed.1647-54 Indian Ocean - 2 sailors killed aboard a ship.07/24/1790 France - Farmer killed; home destroyed; cattle killed.01/16/1825 Oriang, India - Man killed; woman injured.02/27/1827 Mhow, India - Man injured.12/11/1836 Macao, Brazil - Oxen killed; homes damaged.07/14/1847 Braunau, Bohemia - Home struck by 371 lb meteorite.01/23/1870 Nedagolla, India - Man stunned by meteorite.06/30/1874 Ming Tung li, China - Cottage crushed, child killed.01/14/1879 Newtown, Indiana, USA - Man killed in bed.01/31/1879 Dun-Lepoelier, France - Farmer killed by meteorite.11/19/1881 Grossliebenthal, Russia - Man injured.03/11/1897 West Virginia, USA - Walls pierced, horse killed, man injured.09/05/1907 Weng-li, China - Whole family crushed to death.06/30/1908 Tunguska, Siberia - Fire, 2 people killed.

He was only slightly injured.And a woman lying in bed back in the mid-50's was struck by a rock the size of her fist; she also survived.Of course, most meteors explode or vaporize passing through the atmosphere; the remains are dust. So if you've ever walked through a cloud of dust, you've probably been hit by a meteor, or at least, by the remains of one.And there are several unexplained aircraft crashes for which no cause has ever been determined. The chances of an aircraft being destroyed by a meteor are astronomical - however, meteors are themselves "astronomical", and as long as we keep flying and meteors keep falling, eventually a meteor WILL hit an aircraft in flight. It's only a matter of time.
