EEVblog #846 - Solar Panel Micrometeorite Impact!

Dave uses a microscope to examine the shattered LG Mono-X solar panel. Was it a micrometeorite or larger meteorite impact?
General consensus now seems it's a larger meteorite.
Micrometeorites do not have the impact velocity required.
And what are the odds of a micrometeorite impact on a typical solar power installation in a given year?
