<<Do you know which meteorite came closest to your backyard?>>


Probably "Allen, Texas" (H4) seeing that I live in the town right next to Allen. Another candidate could be "McKinney, Texas" (L4), which is about 10 miles away. I have specimens of each.

But because McKinney was found prior to my town actually being incorporated, and "The Book" states that it was found "eight miles west of McKinney", there's a slight possibility that it may have been found in what is now technically, Frisco, Texas.
