Re: Meteorites are just rocks
To ask "why?" is a fair and honest question, as we should always attempt
to question what is around us. That is partially "why" I collect
meteorites. Really, they are the only material I can own that comes
from some other world. It gives me a glimpse as to what it is, and was
like there at one time. Meteorites also show us what our own planet was
like BILLIONS of years ago. Hold a piece of Allende and look at those
CAI's and touch them. They are older than our own Sun! Now that flips
me out. I also collect meteorites for the historical value. I love my
Ensisheim, L'Aigle, Pultisk, Nakhla, and Peekskill. I mean, Ensisheim
fell in 1492, before America was even "discovered" by Columbus. Pretty
neat if you ask me.
Best wishes,
