New powerful microscope looks more closely inside meteorites , far better then ever done previously

Paul is studying the molecular structure of minerals in a meteorite and is using the synchrotron to see details so small no one will have seen them before.

"Meteorites are to planetary scientists what fossils are to archeologists or ice cores are to climatologists"

I liked the way this article started off saying "Meteorites are to planetary scientists what fossils are to archeologists or ice cores are to climatologists."

This article is more about the Tagish British Columbia meteorites ( I have a sample) that are being examined for a better understand of our Solar System. Their discover and what will come about through their examination is quite interesting.
