Meteorites are fascinating space stones that originate from comets, the asteroid belt, or other planets and survive their journey through Earth’s atmosphere. They exhibit a wide range of compositions and colors, making each specimen unique. Meteorites are classified into three main types: irons, chondrites, and achondrites.
-
Irons are primarily composed of iron and nickel, offering a metallic and dense structure.
-
Chondrites are stony meteorites, often containing small spherical inclusions called chondrules.
-
Achondrites are rare stony-iron meteorites, containing stone fragments and sometimes striking olivine crystals embedded in a nickel-iron matrix.
Highly prized by collectors, astronomy enthusiasts, and educational institutions, meteorites provide a tangible connection to the cosmos and the history of our solar system.
