Mysterious stone fell on Tesla running on the highway, scientists said – this is not a common accident

Amazing attack on Tesla: Glass melted, scientific suspense increased

After the incident, Melville-Smith immediately informed the museum. Investigation revealed that part of the windscreen had indeed melted due to heat. Museum mineralogist Kieran Meaney said that the object that collided had a lot of heat. He told that meteorites generally remain cold because only their outer layer burns due to friction in the atmosphere. But if an object falls to the ground at a very high speed, then at the time of collision its Kinetic Energy can be converted into heat and it can cause melting.

Our Earth is full of Space Dust, but such an accurate hit is rare

According to scientists, every year about 5200 tons of material falls on Earth from space. Mostly there is very fine dust, which accumulates in roofs and drains. Incidents of large meteorites falling are very rare and it is considered almost impossible for one to collide.

Was it a meteorite or something else?

The museum is now examining the glass to find out if any space rock particles are trapped in it. If it really turns out to be a meteorite, then the museum will go to that area and search for its remaining part. However, Mini also said that it could be space junk or something fallen from a ship. At present the investigation is going on, but at first sight only Meteorite is being guessed.
