  • @AstroGeoJayJay What is interesting are the different quantatitive blends of spatial and earth material, that is a tektite may be entirely of transformed earth material, or may partly consist of some matter from space, or at times may be mostly of extraterrestrial substance. Tektites do only exist as a result of space matter smashing into the planet. But moldavite is a strange one, it seems quite different to other tektites.

  • @thelleht This is true. Also there are almost no larger pieces to be found any more, only small fragments.
