Explore the universe and immerse yourself in the story of our solar system, planet, and life through meteorites. "Meteorite is a treasure"--Wall Street Journal
Meteorites have long been seen as portents of fate and messages from the gods, their fiery remains inspiring worship and giving rise to legends that have persisted for millennia. But beyond the lore, meteorites tell an even greater story: that of our solar system. In

Meteorite: How Stones from Outer Space Made Our World by Tim Gregory Book Review

Rating: 4.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Padding dilutes the story. Illustrations matter!
Date: Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2022
Review: Meteorite came highly recommended by a fellow geologist for the insights it provided into the true value of meteorites in understanding the history of Earth, its Solar System, and surrounds. I concur with his high opinion of the book, but am ambivalent about its quality for several reasons.
(1) I join with other critics who lament the absence of any color plates or line drawing s to highlight representative examples of meteorites. This is basically an inexcusable editorial omission. Only a few plates would have been needed to convey the intrinsic beauty of the specimens.
(2) The book has another glaring omission: Pages 43 & 44 mention the large classification system that has evolved to characterize subtypes, but this is nowhere tabulated, either by table or by lists. I would think that 30 stony meteorites,, 6 stony irons and 14 irons deserve their own recognition.
(3) On the positive side, the book was clearly written following a well-elaborated outline. The problems I identified were (a) an extremely flat/tedious writing style; (b) overuse of Gee Whiz storytelling; and (c) a surfeit of verbosity. Given the subject matter, which is focused and important, the writing could and should have been far crisper. Along the same lines, I perceived too much digression into sidelights of astronomical theory.
In short, the book is a valuable contribution to public understanding of the hitherto-secret importance of meteorites, but it could have easily been shortened, better illustrated, and placed in the hands of a more ruthless editor before publication.

Title: Enjoyable read!
Date: Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2021
Review: This is a good book for anyone who is interested in this topic! The author does a good job of providing stories, context and scientific details. If you choose to go in depth with trying to understand some of the more challenging scientific words, then you can, but that knowledge is NOT necessary to enjoy the book. It is a fun read and it is always great when the author takes a lot of pride and joy in his passion. It is evident that Gregory is excited about the topic and is very good at writing about how it connects with us and our world in a fascinating holistic manner. Highly recommend!!

Title: One of the best books I have ever read
Date: Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2021
Review: Meteorite by Tim Gregory is one of the best books I have ever read. It describes in sculpted prose how scientists have explored the mysteries of our solar system’s formation and dated the age of the Earth using the ancient time capsules that routinely rain on Earth — meteorites.
“Billowing through the protoplanetary disc as a mass of brightly glowing droplets of lava, clouds of freshly sintered chondrule grains swarmed for five million years. Trillions upon trillions of chondrules, in numbers that far exceed the number of stars in the observable Universe, spiraled as gravitational vortices, and coalesced to build the asteroids and the planets. What a sight it must have been.” (p.140)
The CAIs and chondrules (the circular grains) beautifully preserve pieces of cosmic sediment that formed in the collapsing nebula of our Solar System. The white CAIs are crystals formed directly from the nebular gas; they would resemble snowflakes growing out of thin air. They hold an exotic blend of oxygen isotopes unknown on Earth. Our sun has the exact same blend of oxygen isotopes. The CAIs formed next to the sun at 1,400°F like primordial white Sun snow. Stellar gusts from the surface of the sun blew the CAIs far outward to the colder distal regions of the protoplanetary disc. Scientist Sorby deduced their origin and called them “drops of fiery rain” in 1877. These small spheres formed separately over 5 million years, and they agglomerated over time.
Some of the grains come from other solar systems that popped like supernova firecrackers in our midst. The diamond and silicon carbide grains “crystallized around other stars. They are pieces of bona fide stardust. Some pre-date the solar system by over three billion years! Tiny pieces of rock that are seven billion years old! The mind boggles. We call these most remarkable motes of cosmic sediment ‘pre-solar’ grains.” (p.179)

Title: If Only ......

Review: Truly fascinating in all that we have learned from meteorites. However, rarely have I seen a book that so desperately needed a good set of supporting illustrations. What a shame that there were next to none provided.

Title: Wonderful read, was sad when I finished it, but find I keep going back to reread topics.
Date: Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2021
Review: I could not put this book down, printed up meteorite composition charts to follow along as I read. I would recommend this book to anyone passionate about cosmology, night sky, and understanding earth’s, our solar system’s evolution. He is so devoted and excited by his work and it is contagious. If I have one comment it would be how wonderful illustrations would have been. I looked meteorites as I read.

Review: Some good detail and science but allot of filler and philosophical musings. Prose was too colorful for my taste. And no pictures! Could have used a picture of chondrules, igneous texture..
