Earlier expressed only guesses, and only Chladni in his sochinenii8, appeared in 1794, with complete certainty proved the following: "First, the iron and stones often fall from the sky, it's proven historical facts, and secondly, they are in the form of fireballs and do not represent more than a burning mass, and thirdly, meteorites have cosmic origin, comes to us from outer space and has never before been any on earth or in its atmosphere. " These words are Chladni results of his work that made the whole epoch in the study of meteorites: Only four years have passed since then, when the documentary evidence of the meteorite have Zhyulyaka was rejected by all the scientific world as absurd, and you can imagine the struggle had to endure a Chladni when he so boldly and resolutely opposed the prejudices of his time. From all sides poured on him hit: one scholar even went too far and claimed that if a stone fell at his feet, he would not believe this fact, the other counted Chladni was one of those people who create the false teachings about the world and unaware that they and guilty of all the evil that reigns in the area of ??morality. Fortunately, Chladni had not long to wait for general recognition of his teaching: soon in Europe has dropped a few meteorites, and they were observable large number of witnesses and thoroughly investigated. The first meteorite fell June 16, 1794 in Siena, the second on Dec. 13, 1795 - in Uold-Iokshire Cottage in the third April 26, 1803 - in l'Eglya in Normandy, since any doubt in reality of meteorites have disappeared.
