Conspiracy theory: Meteorites aren't real. It's all just debris. Construction companies bribe astronomers so that they won't face criminal charges.

What kind of construction site launches debris like that, maybe they are building trebuchets?

Meteorites are a conspiracy from Big Construction which in turn is a front for Big Trebuchet. We're through the looking glass here!
