Description: Class: L3Name: NWA 16280Size: 3" glossy sticker (cut with a 3" die) Meteorite classification series stickers. I used meteorites in my personal collection that are good class-type representatives to make a series of stickers that not only look cool but are also informative. By using the class, weathering and shock you can get a better idea of what the different classifications look like. There is often a wide variety of presentation within a class so sometimes there will be more than one example within a category. The name of the meteorite used can be referenced in the Meteoritical Bulletin to learn more about the specific find or fall. Then under the "classification history" section you can click on "show all" to see a list of other meteorites in the same class. Then down the rabbit-hole you go as you learn more and more about that specific classification. The way classification groups work is that once we have 5 different examples of meteorites that share similar characteristics a formal grouping is named. Until this benchmark is achieved meteorites are labeled "ungrouped". The idea is that once a group is named that meteorites can be classed into there is a knowledge base that allows investigation into those meteorite's origins, such as possible current or former position of the parent body in the solar system. While this could possibly be done with a single specimen, the broader body of knowledge really helps to us to be more sure of our observations as opposed to having found an anomaly. All of this is really about the awesomeness of meteoritics: helping us better understand the current state of and the evolutionary origins of our solar system. Just amazing science!
