Old meteor from the roof of the Earth in Georgia; Scientists discovered rock for asteroid belt – video
According to scientists at the University of Georgia, a piece of meteorite through the roof of a house in Georgia last June has been found to be more older than the Earth in the last June.Geologist Scott Harris told Fox News Digital that The Rock, which fell near Atlanta on 26 June, originated from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. The analysis suggests that it was formed 4.56 billion years ago – a 4.54 billion years before the birth of the Earth.A fiery lineageEyewitnesses reported seeing a bright fire circle in the sky that day. Harris was quickly called to investigate the house, where he discovered the dramatic route of meteorite:
- A clean hole through the roof and an air duct
- Entering through insulation and roof
- Effect with floor, a pit excluding a large cherry tomato size

Hit a piece with such force that a part of it is “, such as” someone was hitting it with a sledhaimmer, “said Harris. Rock briefly broke the sound barrier before the effect.This time there is no danger – but a reminder for the futureWhile the small size of the meteorite was no threat to the owners of the house, Harris said that such a decline study is important to protect the planet. Understanding how meteorites travel in space and Earth’s environment, can help scientists to predict – and can help prevent frightening effects.He pointed to NASA’s dart mission as an example of potential defense, where a spacecraft successfully changed the path of an asteroid through kinetic effects.“If you move an asteroid adequately quickly, you can get it to avoid it completely,” Harris said.
