We study meteorites, then, because of an inborn fascination with our beginnings:
because they, and they alone among objects that we can hold in our hands
and study in our laboratories, can carry us back to and perhaps even beyond
the origin of the solar system."
[R. T. Dodd, Thunderstones and shooting stars, 1986]
