Abstract

The Meteorite Who Fell to Earth Orbital data is available for only a handful of meteorites. Some are found long after they fell to Earth. Others are recovered after they have been observed falling through the atmosphere, but their trajectories are rarely recorded. Bland et al. (p. 1525 ) used a photographic camera network located in the Australian desert to track a fireball in the sky, find the meteorite, and establish its orbit. The meteorite is a basaltic achondrite; most such rocks have been traced to the major asteroid Vesta. In this case, the meteorite's isotopic composition and orbital properties suggest a distinct parent asteroid—a different source of basaltic material residing in the innermost main belt.
