In the early 1970's, there was a Canadian made TV series based on the Swiss Family Robinson. One episode of that show, The Intruder, dealt with a meteor that landed on the Robinson's island. However, it soom became apparent that said meteor was deadly to the Robinson family, and they had to find a way to get rid of it. And, in the end, it was Mother Nature that ultimately solved the problem (the contamination of the meteor was destroyed by the rain of a storm).
One has to wonder, did the writer of that SFR episode see this episode of Gilligan's Island. The two plots are amazingly similar.
