Letter: Meteors, migraine and conversion

Published 20 May 2015

From Martin Pitt

The conversion of St Paul on the road to Damascus might well have been triggered by the sight of a meteoric fireball (25 April, p 8). However, he was also supposed to have heard the name of Jesus, which in Hebrew is Yeshua and in Aramaic Eosha. Do meteorites make such a whooshing sound?
