Space and Impact Rocks
|
Meteorites formed as part of the early solar
system 4.56 Ga ago and have been impacting the Earth ever
since. There are many different types of meteorites, the
most common are stony meteorites, of which the chondrites
are believed to have made up the bulk of our planet. Other
space rocks include the iron meteorites that appear to be
metallic cores of long disintegrated protoplanets. |
