When a bolide impacts with Earth, molten material may splash out of the newly created crater, solidifying almost instantaneously so that it is more like glass than a crystalline structure.
A billitonite is a variety of tektite - a mineral from Southeast Asia.
Yes, tektite is considered a mineraloid. Tektites are natural glass formations that are formed from terrestrial debris ejected during meteorite impacts. They lack a crystalline structure, which is why they are classified as mineraloids rather than true minerals.
Australite is a form of tektite, a small, round, dark object formed by the rapid cooling of meteorite fragments which hit the Earth.
A tektite is a drop-shaped glassy object formed from impacting meteorites on Earth's surface. Moldavite is a specific type of tektite with a button shape, formed from a meteorite impact in the Czech Republic about 15 million years ago.

A tektite is a piece of natural glass, or a piece of magma of any composition that cooled very rapidly. A tektite will closely resemble obsidian. Obsidian is a natural glass of volcanic origins. Tektites can be found in three forms. Layered pieces are often large angular blocks weighing as much as ten kilograms or more. Splashform tektites can weigh up to one kilogram and are often assume the shapes of rods, dumbells, teardrops, and patties as well as reduced fragments of these shapes. Microtektites are smaller than one millimeter and they assume similar shapes to splashform specimens. Tektites are a form of natural glass; because glass is amorphous no crystal forms are present on specimens. The fracture is conchoidal and the fresh break will always glitter and shine. Tektites are all at least a little translucent on a thin edge. The colors range from almost transparent yellow, green, and olive to darker almost opaque shades of blackish green or yellow. Gray and violet are contraindicators and are not considered tektite colors.
Sylvia Earle lived underwater for two weeks in 1970 during the Tektite II project. This project, which took place in the US Virgin Islands, aimed to study the effects of living underwater on human physiology and behavior. Earle and her team conducted research in a habitat submerged beneath the ocean, highlighting the importance of marine conservation.
