Hello Darryl,
 
I hope you will include a strongly worded disclaimer stating that any
information about meteorites found in that Pop culture is the result of
overactive imagination, not facts. Meteorites do not glow in the dark, ooze some dark
goo, make weird sounds, or cause insanity (well.... we could argue that
one), they are not radioactive, and do not cause fires.
 
There is already plenty of misinformation out there, lets not add to it.
 
Thanks.
And have a great weekend without snow!

Hi Everyone,

I'm attempting to create a comprehensive list of pop cultural
references in recent years in which meteorites appear in a supporting
or lead role. I'm primarily looking at works of fiction but
scientific references of the pop cultural ilk will be similarly
welcome. Looking for films, TV, books, etc.

Any input would be much appreciated.


Thanks so much, and wishing you a good weekend,

Darryl
