An Updated Catalog of Rayed Craters on Mars
Earth and Space Science, 2023 Martian meteorites represent the only samples of Mars available for study in terrestrial laboratories. In addition to their crystallization and surface ejection ages, these samples provide a detailed understanding of the geochemistry of the martian crust.

The Prevailing Catalytic Role of Meteorites in Formamide Prebiotic Processes
Life, 2018 Meteorites are consensually considered to be involved in the origin of life on this Planet for several functions and at different levels: (i) as providers of impact energy during their passage through the atmosphere; (ii) as agents of geodynamics ...

Molecular Asymmetry in Prebiotic Chemistry: An Account from Meteorites
Life, 2016 Carbonaceous Chondrite (CC) meteorites are fragments of asteroids, solar planetesimals that never became large enough to separate matter by their density, like terrestrial planets.

The Origin and Physico-Chemical Properties of Some Unusual Earth Rock Fragments
Applied Sciences, 2022 In this paper, several researches were undertaken related to a violent phenomenon, characterized by a sonic boom, felt on an area of at least 500 km2, shortly followed by the fall of rock fragments that were then recovered from the ground.
