Depending on it's composition, it could easily have burnt up before hitting the ground.The Daulfin said:No offense but if this had been a meteorite then something the size of a golf ball would've left a crater the size of a small house upon impact. The fact that it bounced on a tile floor is likely the biggest clue it is not a meteorite but it makes a great cover story to keep the public calm.
Anyone want to bet the mystery agencies investigating are DHS, NSA and NCIS?
Very true but since there was something the size of a golf ball left over and it had a dense enough composition to pierce the roof and not just disintegrate into dust and ash, my point is that if it were a meteorite and travelling at such speeds that something with that much mass and that much velocity would cause alot more damage. The pressure wave in front of a speeding meteorite would still be at least a few feet in diameter and would shred a building in its way like so much tinder.basketcase said:
