What A Tiny Micrometeorite From The Pilbara Can Tell Us About The Ancient Sky

Edit IFL Science 13 May 2016
These were mostly I-type micrometeorites, which formed when sand-sized particles of iron metal floating around in space entered Earth’s atmosphere moving at very high speeds (more than 43,000 km/h), causing them to melt and form spheres. One of the curious things that we noted about the I-type micrometeorites is that they were composed primarily of the iron oxide minerals, with metal preserved in a few examples....
