Name: Iron Meteorite Slice/Meteorite Necklace The Altai meteorite is a significant scientific discovery that fell in the Altai .
This event occurred in 1898, and the meteorite was classified as an ordinary chondrite, specifically an L6 type. The ⅢE type is a common variety of meteorites known for their high content of iron and Nickelite minerals, which are the primary constituents of Earth's inner core.
Known as the Widmanstätten pattern, these intricate, geometric figures are a testament to the extraterrestrial origins of this Aletai meteorite.
Formed over millions of years in the heart of a cooling asteroid, these patterns are composed of intersecting bands of kamacite and taenite, two nickel-iron alloys.
The slow cooling within the asteroid's core, estimated at just a few degrees Celsius per million years! allowed these alloys to crystallize and intergrow, creating the distinctive Widmanstätten figures.
These patterns are impossible to replicate on Earth due to the vastly different cooling rates, making them a definitive marker of meteoritic origin and a window into the ancient history of our solar system.
The Aletai meteorite, bearing these remarkable Widmanstätten patterns, offers a tangible connection to the cosmos and the processes that shaped our universe.
