Eagle Station grouplet pallasite		1 % or less by volume	mixture of iron-nickel alloy and non-metallic minerals				from angular fragments to rounded	75 to 80 % by volume	strewn fields, elongated footprints which depends on impact angle, airbursts, and impact velocity			higher than that of average solar system material	2.5 to 4 degrees C per million years	based on the locale, region, or nearby town in which the fall occurred	from homogeneous to heterogeneous	78 to 97 kilometers	more ferroan than main group pallasite		PAL	1.5 % of meteorite falls					7207 kg	1 % or less by volume	in degrees, minutes and seconds of lattitude and longitude			metallic iron plus olivine; core/mantle boundary samples	pallasite	typically one centimeter			always greater than 4 %					33	planet or asteroid much larger than 100 km in diameter
meteorite find									strewn fields, elongated footprints which depends on impact angle, airbursts, and impact velocity					based on the locale, region, or nearby town in which the fall occurred				can be severe due to long exposure time to environmental corrosion agents			lower because the fall was not witnessed				485755 kg		in degrees, minutes and seconds of lattitude and longitude			often minerals not found on Earth	meteorite			when the meteorite was found						1691	meteoroid from interplanetary space or fragment dislodged from another planet, moon or planetesimal	a meteorite whose fall was not witnessed
Eagle Station	meteorite find	1 % or less by volume	mixture of iron-nickel alloy and non-metallic minerals	404 microgram/gram using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis	79.8 mg# or 100 * Mg/(Mg + Fe)	38.7 % by weight	from angular fragments to rounded	75 to 80 % by volume	0.75 miles from Eagle Station, Carroll County, Kentucky	1.34 milligram/gram using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis	42.2 % by weight	higher than that of average solar system material	2.5 to 4 degrees C per million years	Eagle Station	from homogeneous to heterogeneous	78 to 97 kilometers	more ferroan than main group pallasite	can be severe due to long exposure time to environmental corrosion agents	PAL		lower because the fall was not witnessed	2.4 microgram/gram using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis	45.1 microgram/gram using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis	2.66 microgram/gram using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis	485755 kg	1 % or less by volume	38° 37' N., 84° 58' W.	0.070 % by weight	26.0 microgram/gram using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis	often minerals not found on Earth		typically one centimeter	0.18 % by weight	1880	always greater than 4 %	0.031 % by weight	36.3 kg	19.0 % by weight		1691	meteoroid from interplanetary space or fragment dislodged from another planet, moon or planetesimal		104
