Meteorites are stones from outer space that originate from particles of comets, the asteroid belt, and planets, surviving their passage through Earth's atmosphere. Their composition and colors vary widely. There are three main types of meteorites: irons, chondrites, and achondrites. Iron meteorites mainly consist of iron and nickel; chondrites are made of stone, while achondrites are rare stony-irons that contain stone fragments and often feature beautiful olivine crystals set in a nickel-iron matrix.
