It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a brecciated meteorite! New analysis of the Winchcombe meteorite reveals that space rocks similar to this one may have supplied Earth with water billions of years ago. https://t.co/6yGcwjY9iC

The Winchcombe meteorite was recovered, largely from a driveway, just hours after it fell to Earth, preserving evidence that its early relatives could have filled Earth’s oceans.

Thanks so much to @PhilippHeck2 for a wonderful tour this past weekend of my old stomping grounds @FieldMuseum, and showing @astrodocscott and me some space rocks — including some amazing chunks of the Moon and Mars! (That last picture of lunar meteorite fusion crust is my fav!)
