This has reminded me of "Wormwood." Other ancient cultures have predicted a "blue" glowing interstellar object that is supposed to interact with Earth. May not be an actual strike, but the Book of Revelations talks about "Wormwood" bringing hellfire and brimstone with it. Hellfire is the fire that brimstone (aka meteors and meteroites) causes. And this thing has rocks trailing it, so things COULD get interesting soon. Only time will tell.
