        Are there any tektite experts on this list? The formation of
tektites has been a mystery to science. Volcanic origin, Lunar
ejecta, meteorite impact origin, explosive electrical discharge,
etc. The latter proposed by NASA experiments at an arc-jet
facility. What are the current theories on the formation of
tektites. Are there any papers on this that I could get my hands on?
