      Astrophysicists saw a funny shaped rock moving fast and got excited because they could study the funny shaped rock moving fast.

      People who write and report on things saw the excitement but don't share, or even recognize, the astrophysicists' love of high-velocity geology. So they began inventing more 'reasonable' reasons for the excitement.
