Ames Research Center scientists used reentry heat tests and trajectory analysis to link tektites found on Earth to the Tycho crater on the Moon. Dr. Dean Chapman said an iron meteorite struck the Moon about 700,000 years ago, creating molten ejecta that formed tektites and later fell to Earth as glassy showers.
