      Posthumous novel by Jules Verne. A whole town lives in fear of a giant bolide.
      Only two amateur astronomers, eager to possess this solid gold sphere from outer space, see the opportunity to cover themselves with glory.
      Scholars and scientists observe, calculate, and submit several solutions. Nothing seems to be able to prevent the fall of the meteor, neither the magnets-giants, nor the super-cannons that have yet to be developed. The action of the story relies solely on Chance, that clever God who, says the author, "has a habit of confusing and not unravelling things."
