This scientific paper is a summary of the meteorite falls in 2017: Broek in Waterland (Holland), Tres Irmaos (Brazil), Serra Pelada (Brazil) and Kheneg Ljouâd (Morocco). The study also includes a section about unconfirmed falls, such as Puya Medio (Colombia), Mukundpura (India), Crawford Bay (Canada) and Sadiya (India). The vast majority of these specimens is ordinary chondrites of the L and LL groups. Only Serra Pelada meteorite turned out to be eucrite and Mukundpura is suspected to be carbonaceous chondrite. The author collects and organizes basic information about these findings and compares the latest data with statistics from previous years. The description of the circumstances of finding meteorites are brief and maintained in the popular-scientific tone. The text also includes a set of fireballs and bolides that could end with a meteorite fall. Among them is also a bolide that was visible from Poland. The thesis resembles the criteria for dividing meteors and notes the differences in their naming. It is extended by analogies and comparisons that make possible to look at the issues from different perspectives: from the statistical, through the media, to the historical one.
