Melvin Mosley+FollowA 4.56-billion-year-old meteorite lands in McDonoughA rock that’s older than Earth itself just crashed through a home in McDonough, Georgia—talk about a wild houseguest! Scientists say the meteorite, now called the McDonough Meteorite, formed 4.56 billion years ago, making it hundreds of millions of years older than our planet. It tore through the roof, rattled the house, and left behind dust from deep space. Only the sixth meteorite ever seen falling in Georgia, it’s now a scientific treasure and a reminder that Earth’s cosmic dodgeball game is far from over. Would you keep a piece of space rock if it landed in your living room? #Science #Meteorite #Georgia00Share
James Brady+FollowAncient meteorite crashes into Atlanta homeA chunk of rock older than Earth itself smashed through a home near Atlanta last summer, leaving a trail of destruction from the roof to the floor. Scientists say this meteorite, which originated from an asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, is about 4.56 billion years old—predating our planet! While the fragment was small and didn’t hurt anyone, its journey offers a rare glimpse into the early days of our solar system. What would you do if a piece of the universe landed in your living room? Let’s talk about the wild ways space touches our everyday lives! #Science #Atlanta #Meteorite404Share
Tamara Jones+FollowMeteorite Flip-Flops Solar System TimelineA tiny meteorite sold by a Moroccan vendor just blew up what we thought we knew about planet formation! Scientists always believed inner planets like Earth formed first, but this 4.5-billion-year-old space rock from way out past Jupiter says otherwise. Turns out, planets all over the solar system were forming at the same time—no slowpokes in the outer zone. This could totally change how we think about planets everywhere, not just here! Science plot twist, anyone? #Science #SpaceNews #Meteorite221Share
Tamara Jones+FollowMars Rock Sells for a Wild $5.3 Million!A chunk of Mars just sold for a jaw-dropping $5.3 million at Sotheby’s—way above the $4 million expected! This 54-pound meteorite is the biggest piece of Mars ever found on Earth and now holds the record for the priciest meteorite ever auctioned. Only 400 Martian meteorites have ever been found here, so whoever snagged this cosmic rock just scored the ultimate space flex. Imagine having a piece of Mars in your living room! #Science #MarsRock #Meteorite20Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowMeteorite Crashes Through Georgia Roof?!A meteor blazed across the sky so bright it was spotted from space—and it might’ve punched a hole straight through a house in Georgia! Locals heard sonic booms, and now there are pics of a roof with a meteor-sized hole. NASA says these daylight fireballs are super rare (like, once a month worldwide). Imagine chilling at home and a chunk of space rock drops in! Would you keep the meteorite if it landed in your living room? #Meteorite #Georgia #Space #Science153Share
Mrs. Jessica Morgan+FollowWould You Pay $2K for Space Rock?Imagine dropping over $2,000 on a pebble—unless it’s a literal piece of outer space! That’s what Rick from Pawn Stars did when a guest brought in a meteorite possibly older than Earth itself. After some expert sleuthing (magnets and microscopes included), the rock was confirmed legit and worth the splurge. The twist? Not every weird rock is a jackpot—sometimes it’s just a fancy paperweight. Next time you find a strange stone, maybe check if it’s from space before tossing it! #PawnStars #Meteorite #MoneyMoves #Business00Share
