| So professor, what do you knowabout processed meteorites? | |
|
| I think the real question here is what don't I know about processed meteorites. | |

|
|
|
| Ok. | |
|
| These little babies are way cool. Did you know they are the fragments of destroyed planets? | |
|
|
|
|
|
| I did not. | |
|
| Well now you do. You see, when a planet forms is partially molten. The dense nickel and iron sinks to the core while the less dense material remains in the mantle or crust. This is what we in the biz call differentiation. | |
