Ron Metchis is a regular on our weekly hangouts. This video took him a long time to make since he takes us thru the time intensive work that goes into saving (stabilizing) a slice of Iron meteorite, in this case Aletai.
A fair amount of detail is provided about the best electrolysis setup for you to try yourself. The meteorite slice stays in the bath for 17 days in this case. The finished product is well worth the efforts. Ron was able to reveal its remarkable Widmanstatten pattern thru chemical etching.
Meteorites are 4.5 billion years old. We may be the current curator of any given piece. It is your responsibility to maintain your collections. Join us weekly to learn more. Thanks Ron for your continued contributions.
