Esquel meteorite
This is a piece of the Esquel meteorite, a meteorite found in Chubut, Argentina in 1951 as a single mass weighing more than
700 kilograms.It is a pallasite meteorite, and that is why it contains such strange shapes and patterns. Pallasites are translucent, olivine
crystals embedded in an iron-nickel matrix
