5 800 Years Ago Earth Satellite Broke Up Over Argentina
A joint U S and Argentine team reported that a huge natural earth satellite broke apart about 5 800 years ago and scattered fireball fragments across northern Argentina. They found a 6 800 pound meteorite in Campo del Cielo along with nine craters over ten miles, and a field of smaller meteorites. Radiocarbon dating places crater formation around 5 800 years ago, suggesting a high altitude breakup in a flat trajectory. The chunk found by farmer Lazaro Melovich led to a major collection loaned to Lamont and now at Mainz for study in halves.
