A woman got hit by a rocket and walked it off. π . . . On January 22, 1997, Lottie Williams was walking through a Tulsa park at 3:30 AM when a 5-inch piece of blackened fiberglass tapped her on the shoulder. It felt, she said, like an empty soda can. NASA later confirmed: it was a fragment of a Delta II rocket that had launched the Midcourse Space Experiment satellite, re-entering from orbit. She remains the only human ever confirmed struck by space debris.
