What are the odds of getting hit by a meteorite?

Point of grammar: unless I’m mistaken, when a rock is falling, it’s a meteor, and once it hits, it becomes a meteorite. So shouldn’t this be “What are the odds of getting hit by a meteor?” ?

Except, of course, that it’s the act of striking that turns the meteor into a meteorite, so perhaps “hit by a meteorite” is correct in this case. I just can’t tell.

Laguna, I´ve *worked* for German accident insurance. Sure, the *mandatory* part pays for injuries only, but pretty much everyone also includes at least a small sum for death – to cover funeral costs, if nothing else.
