I live in Cyprus and I have a whole room of meteorites, the problem is that here we don't have an institute where I can give them for classification...

Hello Dr. Philipp, I have found 3 big fragments of possible meteorites, which are strongly magnetic, and believed to be a stony-iron meteorite. The incredible thing is that I cut a slab from one of the rocks, and found a matrix of super tiny grains with a diversity of colours. I am supposing that they may be so old like a 4.6 billion year old meteorite in Albany Museum, New York. I am from Vietnam, and it is told that they are incapable of testing them due to lack of modern technologies, and experts. Do you run a paid service for testing a meteorite? I will be happy if you can help. It makes a big sense to me, and space science in Vietnam, as well. Thank you, and look forward to hearing from you.

Were you ever able to get it tested?

I have a small piece of the meteor that hit AZ 50,000 years ago and made meteor crater. It’s metal a little bigger than an egg. So cool to hold something not from this earth.

[@kreeyee4250]

Yes, I have a star in Cambodia that landed in front of my house while I was refueling in front of my house, it sounded like a gas canister house at about 4 to 5 in the afternoon.

[@fredhannum4015]

I witnessed a meteorite landing near Palm Springs in the mid 1980s, the fireball was large and moving slowly. The flames were bright orange but at the front it was bright green. It was very close and we searched the next morning,and we believe it buried itself in the old polo grounds where I think they now have music festivals every year (Coachella) ? I would love to find it. I purchased a meteorite from a rock,gem, and mineral show a few years ago it came from Argentina and has many interesting "fingers" it is Iron/nickel and one these resembles the face and shoulders of a brooding great ape . A monkey faced meteorite !

[@shaunessex3095]

Thanks for the knowledge 🤓 I believe I may have this meteorite (s) 2 of simular in size to the ones shown, and a 50cm x .40cm x .30 cm and will take a few people to help me move it I'm guessing it must Weigh 130/160 kg , on the smaller ones the magnetic polarity mostly pushing the magnet back and it's polarity isn't constant as the magnet passes it pushes back around 5 times in 5/6 cm , RUST is present, it also appears to have a gold material, crystal qauts small and round in groups of 5 long dots stacked

I have likely the same with your presentation. Tha is, a red pigment appears and CARBONACEOUS CHONDRITE very visible. One thing more, most of the color of the background is RED.

[@EpicLib]

To me it just looks like a piece of asphalt

[@crazymeteorites3653]

In like 1999 when I was a kid I saw one fall from the sky. Looked like a line/flash of orange light. Never heard a sonic boom or anything. Started to look a few years ago and found a huge crater and a meteorite that is almost completely non magnetic except for the face and back. I’d never sell it and it was never reported. Made a nice crater I have the video and stone up I found ash along with giant pieces of glass take a peak the channel is new but there will be more to come 😉

How would you even research this chondrite to find what the particular abundances are in relation to rare earth's and heavy elements. You would certainly need an inner specimen but would be difficult to find how much earth's material leached in if it were under water at all. All in all, the natural abundances do not reflect whole solar system abundance, but just that component where this object formed. A larger sample of these rare flying objects is required to find exactly how many supernova, and even neutron star collisions were necessary for our present Earth abundance, and how much fell beyond our grasp to the Earth's core.
