In Hopewell Township, New Jersey, an extraordinary event took place when a mysterious metallic object, possibly a meteorite, crashed through the roof of a local home. It tore into the hardwood floor and ricocheted around a bedroom before finally settling in a corner. Remarkably, the object was still warm when the family discovered it.
Fortunately, no one was injured, and the house sustained minimal damage. Local authorities in Hopewell Township reported that the object measures approximately 4 by 6 inches and weighs around four pounds. To further investigate this intriguing occurrence, the homeowners plan to consult with an astrophysicist.
Suzy Kop, a member of the family residing in the affected home, initially thought that someone had thrown a rock into their upstairs bedroom. However, upon closer inspection, they realized the truth. Kop expressed their belief that the object is indeed a meteorite, stating, “We are thinking it’s a meteorite. It came through here, hit the floor here because that’s completely damaged, it ricocheted up to this part of the ceiling and then finally rested on the floor there.” Kop even touched the object, initially mistaking it for an ordinary rock, but was surprised to find that it was warm.
As a precautionary measure, hazmat officials inspected the home alongside the family to ensure there was no exposure to radioactive material. Fortunately, all checks came back negative.
This extraordinary incident has captivated the attention of many, and the family awaits further analysis from experts to unravel the mysteries surrounding this unexpected visitor from the skies.
