Flying meteorite from Odessa (Texas - US)
PUMI2174
In Texas, near the city of Odessa, you can see a crater 160 meters in diameter and 6 meters deep. The meteorite that caused this hole weighed several tons, but it fell iin prehistoric America 60,000 years ago. And only 1.6 tons were discovered. A cattle farmer discovered it in 1892, and despite many drillings since, the main mass seems to have disintegrated and has not been found (1 piece of 136Kg is the most important). It is composed of Kamacite, the alloy of Iron and Nickel that is found on earth only in ferrous meteorites. This meteorite will levitate in your home forever.
