It is often considered as the “Rosetta Stone” of planetologists, because it has improved our knowledge on the origins of our solar system. This meteorite was formed before our planet, in the very first moments of the solar system. It preserves in its heart the traces of the nebula which generated the Sun and its procession of planets.
