Tom asked "What's with this statement?

"The exposed portion of the meteor shows
unmistakable evidence that it landed in a molten or semi-molten condition."

I think that is a reference to the regmaglypts all over the iron (did you
look at Vernish's photo?).

Bad science is common in newpapers on meteorite finds and sightings, both
old and current.

Clear Skies,
Mark
