Meteorites are fascinating cosmic visitors. Using accessible
language, this book documents the history of mineralogy and
meteorite research, summarizes the mineralogical characteristics of
the myriad varieties of meteorites, and explains the mineralogical
characteristics of Solar System bodies visited by spacecraft. Some
of these bodies contain minerals that do not occur naturally on
Earth or in meteorites. The book explains how to recognize
different phases under the microscope and in back-scattered
electron images. It summarizes the major ways in which meteoritic
minerals form - from condensation in the expanding atmospheres of
dying stars to crystallization in deep-seated magmas, from
flash-melting in the solar nebula to weathering in the terrestrial
environment. Containing spectacular back-scattered electron images,
colour photographs of meteorite minerals, and with an accompanying
online list of meteorite minerals, this book provides a useful
resource for meteorite researchers, terrestrial mineralogists,
cosmochemists and planetary scientists, as well as graduate
students in these fields
