Cranbrook Institute of Science recently obtained a new meteorite, the Allende meteorite, which was originally part of a massive fireball that broke up over Chihuahua, Mexico on February 8, 1969. The Allende meteorite is classified as a Carbonaceous chondrite, with certain elements of the meteorite dating back to 4.568 billion years, which is roughly 30 million years older than Earth.
The meteorite is currently on display in a vitrine in the Astronomy Gallery at the Institute of Science. Come take a look for yourself!
