MURCHISON

Certainly one of the most famous and most studied of all meteorites.
Fell on September 28, 1969 as a shower of stones around the small town of Murchison in the state of Victoria in southern Australia. The largest stone weighs about 7 kg, and over 100kg was recovered.
It was analyzed and classified as a Carbonaceous Chondrite type CM2. But that was not the end of it, it has also been found to contain amino-acids, a great many of them, some already known and many totally unknown, new to science. And the research continues.
