We touched the meteorite from the Canyon Diablo, Arizona. The sign said we could.
The Canyon
Diablo meteorites include the many fragments of the asteroid that created the
Barringer Crater in Arizona. Meteorites
have been found around the crater rim and are named for nearby Canyon Diablo. The asteroid fell about 50,000 years
ago. Studies of this crater refined the
estimate of the age of the Earth to 4.550 billion years. The crater is about 3,900 ft. in diameter,
570 ft. deep, and is surrounded by a rim that rises 148 ft. above the
surrounding plains.

The
nephrite Jade boulder was found near Lander, Wyoming. A section was cut and polished for you to
feel and touch. This stone weighs 2,490
pounds. That's a lot of Jade!
