Scientists say the meteorite that struck the house is older than the ground.

Scientists said that meteorites crashed into a house in the United States older than the planet.

NASA confirmed that the object flew through the sky in broad daylight before it exploded throughout Georgia on June 26.

Georgia researchers examined part of the rock that penetrated the roof of a house in McDono.

They found that, based on the type of meteorite, it is expected that it would have been formed 4.56 billion years ago, making it about 20 million years old.

The population in Georgia and the states near the hundreds of scenes and high -prosperity noise were informed when the fire ball was tolerated in the sky.

The rock quickly decreased in size and speed, but it still traveled at least one kilometer per second, as it passes through a man’s roof in Henry County.

Multiple fragments that struck the building were delivered to the scientists who analyzed their origins.

“This particular meteorite who entered the atmosphere has a long history before it reaches the land of McDono,” said Scott Harris, a geologist at the University of Georgia.

Using the optical and electron microscope, Harris and his team decided that the rock was Shundrett – the most types of tight meteorites, According to Nasa This means that he was about 4.56 billion years old.

The resident at home said he still finds a piece of space around his home.

The object, which has been called McDono, is the twenty -seventh that was recovered from Georgia.

“This is something that was expected once every few decades, not several times within 20 years,” Harris said.

“Modern technology, in addition to the awake audience, will help us restore more and more meteorites.”

Harris hopes to spread its results about the composition and speed of the asteroid, which will help to understand the threat of asteroids.

“One day there will be an opportunity, and we never know when it will be, for a big thing to strike and create a catastrophic situation. If we can continue to do so, we want that,” he said.
