TOOELE, Utah — With the boom caused by the meteor that streaked across northern Utah still ringing in the ears of residents, people are now getting their first look at the object that caused such an uproar.
While the meteor split into thousands of pieces upon entering the Earth's atmosphere, it created a treasure hunt of sorts to find those pieces that made it to the ground. Clary's find is even more impressive considering it's very rare to discover such a new meteorite on the planet. "Look at this tiny little egg shell fusion crust on there; that's caused by the meteor coming through the Earth's atmosphere belt basically just melting the outside of the meteorite."
