I personally not yet so far.

That's an unusual texture, I think the geologists call it spherulitic -
indicative of rapid cooling.

Here's an example of a similar texture in Apollo rock 60017:

Got any thin section micrographs of that meteorite yet?

Anyone recall seeing another meteorite with that texture?
