Meteor showers, which happen when our planet traverses through debris streams left behind by passing comets, are a fairly common occurrence. While the tiny rocks usually burn up when they collide with our atmosphere, resulting in what we call "shooting stars," every so often one manages to survive the impact and land on Earth. That is precisely what appears to have happened in Costa Rica recently.

                    This is cool but also dangerous. It is a good thing the lady whose house was struck by the meteor wasn’t by where it landed in her house because she could’ve been dangerous. I remember when I was little me and my dad would use our telescope to look for shooting stars aka meteors. I wonder what the lady thought when she found this in her home.
