Is an "Umbrella" that is 1 block thick enough to stop a meteor from destroying your house? I've got my on the surface, and I basically have a pillar of dirt that goes up from my roof into the sky to about 700 then outward in both directions, it was originally a sky bridge, but I'm just wondering if it can double as a meteor umbrella too. Also, I'm fully aware that this is detrimental to meteorite mining, which is why I'm asking, I've taken apart most of the sky bridge, but I'll leave the bit above my house intact if it will save me from a molten fiery demise at the hands of a meteor.
