Iron Meteorite Donated to Eastern Kentucky University

Several reprort including this one from WYKT.

The school has received a 33-pound meteorite believed to have landed on the Kentucky-Tennessee line more than a century ago.

When Donna Lewis handed Dr. Jerry Cook The rock that had been at her family farm outside of Pineville for nearly 80 years, it was a big scientific moment for EKU.



Some nice pictures here. Nothing on the EKU web site as yet.
