Meteorites occur all over the world
Antarctica has the most meteorites due to its icy surface that preserves them well. Scientists regularly find meteorites there, making it a hotspot for meteorite discoveries.
No, not all meteorites are attracted to magnets. Some meteorites contain iron and nickel, which are magnetic and will be attracted to magnets. However, other meteorites may not contain these elements and will not be attracted to magnets.
There are four syllables in the word meteorites. Me-te-or-ites.
Yes, some meteorites contain diamonds. These diamonds are formed under extreme pressure and temperature conditions during the impact event that creates the meteorite. However, diamonds in meteorites are usually microscopic in size.

Yes, meteorites can rust when they enter Earth's atmosphere due to the high temperatures and chemical reactions that occur during their entry.
Iron meteorites, stony meteorites and stony-iron meteorites.

Stony meteorites, iron meteorites, stony-iron meteorites.
no, steel is one of many manmade alloys. the closest natural material to steel are nickel-iron meteorites.
There are 3 main classifications of meteorites; Stony-iron meteorites, Iron meteorites and Stony meteorites. Stony-iron meteorites are mainly composed of meteoric iron which can be also found in Iron meteorites, Iron meteorites commonly contains iron nickel alloy and the Stony meteorites are the meteorites consists of silicate.
Iron meteorites, stony meteorites and stony-iron meteorites.
Iron meteorites, stony meteorites and stony-iron meteorites.
The two main types of meteorites that hit Earth are stony meteorites and iron meteorites. Stony meteorites are composed mainly of silicate minerals, while iron meteorites are composed mainly of metallic iron-nickel.
Meteorites fall into two classes, stony and iron. There is a belt of meteoric material near Mars, from which many of our meteorites come. Perhaps the debris from a broken planet? The iron meteorites, in fact iron-nickel mixtures, are magnetic. the stony meteorites are not. Have a look for Bode's Law in a reference source.
