Sikhote-Alin	high	201 nanogram/gram	during meteor phase	10 microgram/gram	it fragments because smaller pieces with less mass are more easily slowed by the atmosphere	type IIAB iron meteorite	Ogg	crystalline iron-nickel alloy	size is between 3 micrometers and 3 millimeters	9.9 microgram/gram	2000 microgram/gram	low because it is tougher than stony meteorite	crater	Sikhote-Alin Mountains, Maritime Province, Russia, 270 miles northeast of Vladivostok	February 12, 1947, 10:38 a.m. local time		higher than that of average solar system material	0.8 to 3 degrees C per million years		Sikhote-Alin	90 to 165 kilometers	9 ± 5 mm (coarsest)	0.20 % by weight	1.1 microgram/gram		2.6 microgram/gram	5.7 % of meteorite falls	6.9 microgram/gram	during impact phase		3563 kg	14.5 kilometers per second	46° 9' 36" N, 134° 39' 12" E	129 microgram/gram	2.1 microgram/gram	kamacite, daubreelite	large if the fall was witnessed	greater than 14000 kg		6.15 % by weight	28 microgram/gram		planet or asteroid much larger than 100 km in diameter	43	low because it has higher tensile strength than stony meteorite	5.9% Ni, 0.42% Co, 0.46% P, about 0.28% S, 52 ppm Ga, 161 ppm Ge, 0.03 ppm Ir	power outages and failures in electrical equipment due to EMP (electromagnetic pulse)	5.3 milligram/gram		58.3 microgram/gram	173 microgram/gram	6 milligram/gram
