I can tell you why they are taking seamen and eggs, and producing hybrid children, But You are Not Going to Like It !! I have heard a lot of people say it is because they can't reproduce, or they need to populate their planet. Not .... It is this planet that is going to have to be repopulated. And plus they are trying bread out the war genes and replace them with spiritual genes. They know the future because they can also time travel.

In all honesty the most likely scenario is that the man survived a run in with a meteor of some kind and did not know he was hit. Would not be the first time someone was shot and didn't know it.

You are viewing it on Planet Earth. Clearly, it would have been larger in space. I think that's fail logic right there on the first statement. Clearly a rock on Earth from space would be smaller after falling through the atmosphere. The size you see there is the result, not the before.
In addition, the formula and calculator you used is irrelevant, for we do not know the initial size nor shape of the object. however, at 70 mph, it would have breached the skin. For it would have been hot, sharp, and fast.
If the rock did explode, it could have happened at any time. Men and women during atomic testing in the 50s were hit with chunks of radioactive particles from miles away. But that was a totally different situation. Point is, peppering does not necessitate all particles go in the same direction at the same density. In fact its density decreases the further you get from the blast. This is why a grenade doesn't kill you from a certain distance.
You would not be standing next to it. A single chunk accelerated from the blast could have flown miles away, hit something, and lodged itself into the man, all in his sleep. No different than a stray bullet from a parade of insane Palestinians shooting into the air landing miles away into the head of a small child sleeping calmly.
Sorry, but nothing you stated counters the high likelihood of this situation.
A meteor that size would more than likely have burned up upon impacting the earths atmosphere
If it didn't then it would have at the very least been slowed down to terminal velocity..
This scenario would be if a much larger meteor was to enter the atmosphere (one large enough to survive the entry into the atmosphere without being completely destroyed).
In which case after this larger meteor inters the atmosphere.......
Also a meteor big enough to survive the atmospheric burn.......
However someone that close to a meteor that has exploded would likely be peppered with many many bits not just one or two

Precisely! an alien could land in front of a skeptic and he would refute it and claim it was a bird or something silly. Many skeptics are simply scared to admit that there could in actual fact be life out there and goverments are keeping this under wraps because it would have huge ratifications in regards to society and especially religion.
