The Origin and Physico-Chemical Properties of Some Unusual Earth Rock Fragments
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.
