meteorite find which depends on its composition during meteor phase which depends on composition 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 directly proportional to initial velocity a meteorite whose fall was not witnessed
