A friend of mine said that one night some kind of light went streaking over his building and about a mile away there’s a park so I want to walk my dog over there and I found this in the middle of the grass right like it’s been pushed into the ground maybe just a rock but what do you guys think ? This was about 17 years ago.
🔎 UNIDENTIFIED New find moon rock ?

Sorry, but it exhibits no features which could be said to be characteristic of a lunar or any other kind of meteorite.
If what your friend saw was actually a meteor streak in the sky then it would have been very high up in the atmosphere and any meteoritic debris from it would likely have fallen a considerable number of miles from the observation. Streaks from meteoroids enter a 'dark phase' as they pass through the lower atmosphere and approach the ground, unless they are extremely large... and if that was the case the event would have been widely reported.
