A #meteorite was recovered from the asteroid 2023-CX1 that fell in Normandy France the morning of February 13 2023. This was the third time in history where parts of a previously known #asteroid were recovered on the ground. Researchers were able to pinpoint where to search based on images from the #FRIPON camera network that was designed exactly for this purpose. This meteor occurred nearly 10 years to the day after the more destructive #Chelyabinsk #meteor in Russia.
