lherzolite shergottite based on the locale, region, or nearby town in which the fall occurred during meteor phase when it hits the ground which is smaller than its velocity before it enters the atmosphere Mars during impact phase 70 crater recorded by eyewitness or inferred from dating methods Shergottite, Nakhilite, Chassignite lherzolite which appears as an elongated footprint which depends on impact angle, airbursts, and impact velocity low in degrees, minutes and seconds of lattitude and longitude high because it is more friable than iron meteorite power outages and failures in electrical equipment due to EMP (electromagnetic pulse) AEUC large if the fall was witnessed no chondrules cooling in deep underground chambers 1606 kg strewn fields, elongated footprints which depends on impact angle, airbursts, and impact velocity it fragments because smaller pieces with less mass are more easily slowed by the atmosphere very slow size is between 3 micrometers and 3 millimeters which can over an order of magnitude greater than total mass of fragment(s) collected at the impact site 7.1 % of meteorite falls silicates (with very few exceptions) high because it is more friable than iron meteorite
