The surface of the meteorite

Especially characteristic in this respect, a meteorite crashed in Shtannerna in Moravia, this-a-kind classic example is stored in Vienna at the Imperial Mineralogical Cabinet. It goes without saying that the glassy crust of the meteorite should be thin: even if melted much of the meteorite, then it will not remain on its surface: the strong flow of air will blow it and break into small particles, the latter will be flying for the meteorite, and will participate in the formation of a brilliant tail him. If there are cracks in the meteorite, then fill them with molten mass to form a vein of black glassy substance, such veins are often found inside meteorites.
