Mysterious Meteorites

  • October 19, 2024
  • 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Is it a meteor, meteorite, or meteoroid? What do we learn about meteorites by looking at them in hand or by microscope? Learn how the study of meteorites developed, find out if “space rocks” differ from Earth rocks, and if we humans are in any way related to “space rocks.” Join Bill Mikuska, M.S. as he demonstrates how microscopes explain the mysteries of meteorites. Free linear polarized light material provided.
