Disponible jusqu’au 14/06/2024 #Trafics #météorite #Arte Au Chili, les météorites ne sont pas protégées par une loi, et leur recherche comme leur vente sont autorisées. Récemment, le premier spécimen chilien de Mars a été découvert et transporté en France dans l’attente du plus offrant. Pendant des années, la science a défendu l’intérêt d’étudier ces roches…

Originally found in a #meteorite, and now finally obtained in the laboratory. #Tetrataenite is a #material that can help become independent of rare earths materials, on which #China has almost a monopoly.

Brillante bolide nella serata del 5 agosto sull'Italia meridionale. Frammenti di #meteorite di massa complessiva fino a 1,4 kg potrebbero essere caduti in provincia di Campobasso. Qui l'analisi dettagliata della rete di monitoraggio PRISMA dell'#INAF

100 km east of Hudson Bay is Lac Wiyâshâkimî, which with its two round lobes was suspected of being a double impact crater. This has turned out to be the case.

However, it's *not* the case that it was a double asteroid hitting Earth at the same time. The east crater is dated at 460-470 million years old, while the one on the west was formed 285-290 million years ago. Basically the same spot on Earth got hit twice by two big, unrelated meteors two hundred million years apart.

Ann Elizabeth Fowler Hodges was an American woman known for being the first documented individual not only to be struck by a meteorite, but also to live through the encounter.

Pointe de flèche, en fer météorique, découverte en Suisse.
Le truc fait 33 cm de long pour 25 cm de large et pèse 3 kg !
Tu vois la gueule de l'arc et les bras qu'il faut pour balancer un truc comme ça dans un bestiau ?
("arrowhead" dans l'article : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0305440323001073 , et c'est trop petit pour une flèche de baliste)
La météorite candidate pour avoir déposé ce fer sur Terre est tombée Estonie.

New analysis reveals: an arrowhead found in the 19th Century in the late Bronze Age (900–800 BCE) lake dwelling of Mörigen, Switzerland, was made of meteoritic iron. The Kaalijarv #meteorite, Estonia, is proposed as a possible source of the iron.

That's unique. #Meteorite recovered in the Sahara is believed to be a piece of Earth that was ejected by another asteroid impact or a volcano, spent a few millennia orbiting the sun before crashing back home.

So there's a clickbait title (it got me!) but what I found more interesting is the story of how a Harvard team didn't wait for their research to be permitted by PNG authorities.

In 1864 a meteorite which landed in France was eaten by locals who believed it to be a “space truffle”.

The Oxford University Museum of Natural History is today's #MidweekMuseum and it's a place worth seeing for the building itself as much as the exhibits. It's a great example of Victorian Neo-Gothic design in iron and glass. There are some lovely pieces to see in the museum, of course, but we took most joy in being allowed to touch the 4.5 billion years old Nantan iron meteorite.
