Meteorites, space Comic

 Don't  break it open and exam the internal  Meteorites, space Comic 

Film picture  from Nicole Smith 


(terrestrial) is alien

The image appears to show a meteorite, possibly a carbonaceous chondrite, exhibiting features like a fusion crust or remnants of it. 

Fusion Crust:

Meteorites often develop a thin, dark, glassy outer layer called a fusion crust as they burn through Earth's atmosphere. 

Carbonaceous Chondrites:

These are a type of stony meteorite that are not as strong as ordinary chondrites and can be more susceptible to flaking of the fusion crust. 

Example:

The Aguas Zarcas meteorite is an example of a carbonaceous chondrite known for its fusion-crusted stones and unusual shapes. 

Identification:

While visual inspection can offer clues, definitive identification of a meteorite requires expert analysis, often involving examining internal structure and composition.
