2026 #Masterton #Meteorite continued. The last decent find of the day from the Fireballs Aotearoa team. Shows clear melting and aerodynamic deformation top left of centre. Now tucked safely to bed in my dessicator box before it gets shipped tomorrow.

So, now I can talk. A meteorite hit near our place. My home lab was the nearest available, so I've been hosting a researcher and having people with metal detectors going in and out for the last few days. I think they're wrapping up tomorrow, but it's been fascinating doing microscopy, prep, and density measurements on something older than the Earth!

💁🏻♀️ TIL: ☄️🧂 A #meteorite that crashed through a #NewJersey home in 2024 contained preserved salts and organic compounds from its parent #asteroid, evidence of ancient brines interacting with #carbon #chemistry.
Researchers found amino acids and other #prebiotic #molecules in the rock. The findings offer new clues about how life’s building blocks may have been delivered to early #Earth.

An #asteroid hit deep in the #Australian #outback. What it left may have broken a record.
Australian researchers say they have found evidence of Earth’s oldest known asteroid #impact. It dates back three billion years:

RE: https://academiccloud.social/@mpsgoettingen/116770508901379640
New press release today about the search for life on Mars with the future Rosalind Franklin rover, with significant contributions to the paper by IMPRS alumn Manuel Reinhardt. Manuel has been pursuing similar questions since his IMPRS PhD thesis at the University of Göttingen in 2019, where he had been assessing the formation and preservation of organic signatures in extreme environments using analog environments on Earth.

This time Leseigneur et al. are looking at organics in meteorites:

💁🏻♀️ TIL: ☄️🏠 On May 30, 2026, a #meteor screaming at nearly 68,000 km/h over #CapeCod released #energy equal to 300 tons of #TNT when it broke apart.
It was one of several recent fireballs tracked by #satellites, doorbell #cameras, and dashcams – our accidental planetary #defense network. University of #Maine planetarium director Shawn Laatsch explains how friction, shock waves, and #sonicbooms work, and why your odds of being hit by a #meteorite are near zero.

#PPOD: This #meteorite was found in 2019 in northwest Africa and is officially named NWA 12774. Classified as an angrite, this relatively rare type of meteorite is made from material that formed just a few million years after the solar system began. Usually, angrites come from asteroids; however, analysis of certain crystals in NWA 12774 reveals a high aluminum concentration, indicating formation under intense pressure deep within a larger body.
