mn90403 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Now this is a somewhat subjective category but maybe we can make our own and add others. What do you think is a famous meteorite? I would say Meteor Crater in Arizona. The meteorites in question are actually called Canyon Diablos. Here is a list from LiveScience and it doesn't include Canyon Diablos. https://www.livescience.com/15445-fallen-stars-gallery-famous-meteorites.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardtimehermit Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Did someone say Canyon Diablo? This is 210g iron i found at the crater. Now before anyone gets the idea they can hunt for meteorites at the crater, you can NOT !!! I was lucky to be remodeling the kitchen on the ranch where the caretakers of the crater live. So this was a once in a lifetime chance, and i was very happy with my finds. I personally think Glorieta meteorite is a famous pallasite that is one of the most beautiful out there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
