Meteorites explained: what is a meteorite?

Geology Today, 2021
Meteorites are natural lumps of rock and/or metal that fall to Earth from Space. Most meteorites are from the Asteroid Belt, with a few from the Moon or from Mars, but their ultimate origins extend more widely through the Solar System. More than 150 parent bodies are represented among more than 65 000 meteorites known.

Photometry of meteorites

Icarus, 2012
Abstract We have measured the bi-directional reflectance phase function on selected meteorite samples (1 howardite, 1 eucrite, 1 diogenite, Orgeuil (CI), Tagish Lake (CC), Allende (CV), Lunar meteorite (MAC 88105), Forest Vale (H4)) covering part of the geochemical and petrologic diversity expected for asteroid surfaces.

Lunar meteorites from northern Africa

Meteoritics and Planetary Science, 2014
We report bulk composition data for 235 stones of ~77 lunar meteorites from northern Africa and 33 lunar meteorites from elsewhere. About 27% of the African meteorites are typical feldspathic lunar rocks, all breccias of similar bulk composition, for ...

Chemical analyses of meteorites: A compilation of stony and iron meteorite analyses

, 1990
— A compilation of the chemical analyses of 241 stony and 36 iron meteorites is presented; 196 analyses were published previously, 81 are new. This compilation includes analyses of new falls, new finds, previously analyzed meteorites, previously analyzed

Meteorites as catalysts for prebiotic chemistry.

Chemistry, 2013
OH (2:1 v/v), and sulfu-ric acid. In the case of chondrites, achondrites, and stony-iron meteorites, the samples were also pyrolyzed at 6008C.After the treatment, the powders did not release any traceof organic substances.

What we have learned about Mars from SNC meteorites

, 1994
The SNC meteorites are thought to be igneous martian rocks, based on their young crystallization ages and a close match between the composition of gases implanted in them during shock and the atmosphere of Mars.
