Chances are pretty good! But I would put that 'pretty good' at 1 in 100,000,000.
It is a rare thing but houses and cars (and even people) have been hit, so the chances are as good as being struck by lightning. Not much, BUT . . . it can happen!
Your house is bombared 24 hours a day by millions of Micro-Meteorites about the size of grains of salt
