This solid mass travels billions of miles through space at extremely fast speeds before crashing its way to our planet. Referred to as a meteoroid prior to impact meteorites are unique rocks that come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Once it enters our atmosphere friction pressure and chemical interactions with atmospheric gases causes the meteoroid to heat up and radiate energy forming the fireballs we call shooting or falling stars.Widmanstätten patterns on the meteorite face of this watch is known as Thomson structures which are figures of long nickel–iron crystals, found in the octahedrite iron meteorites and some pallasites. They consist of a fine interleaving of kamacite and taenite bands or ribbons called lamellae.
