The list is slow so thought I'd throw out a couple of pictures of things I
found in a small chondrite I cut this afternoon.

Of course the pictures aren't even close to the quality shared by some, but
hopefully they are at least mildly interesting.

magnification is something around 40x

First is a chondrule with a fairly thick and intricate "halo". Hard to get
a good picture of the detail.

And here is a heavily armored tiny inclusion
