If a meteor is falling, it should be picked up by the ship’s defense system, at the least, NASA should know about it. So an alert would go out to ships in the general area, so, yes, the skipper would be responsible. However, I don’t recall what happened to the captains of the USS Stark or the USS Cole when they were attacked, but those were “relieveable” offenses, too.

Please tell me you are joking.
