Book excerpt: All of these people have discovered possible evidence of rocks from space that passed through the atmosphere and landed on Earth. Sometimes there is little or no evidence of the rock itself; it burned up in the atmosphere or broke up on impact. Other times the rock is all there is, with little evidence of its fiery entry or crash landing. These events all involve the mysteries of meteorites: what they are, where they come from, how they got here, how they affect people, and what they tell us about the solar system. These are some of the questions that are investigated in Exploring Meteorite Mysteries.
