Meteorite hunters from all over the country have flocked to the area in search of meteorites. Many of my friends are there now and they’re finding meteorites. I’m on my way, and hope [...]
A common myth about meteorites impacting Earth as a flaming missile, exploding in a massive fireball rocketing shrapnel pieces for miles around while blasting a huge crater in the ground is just that, a myth. While it’s possible for a large asteroid to hold it’s cosmic velocity all the way to the ground, most meteorites [...]
