The Sylacauga meteorite is a well-known meteorite that fell in Alabama, USA, on November 30, 1954. It is classified as a chondrite, which is a type of stony meteorite that contains small round particles called chondrules. The meteorite gained attention when it struck a house, injuring a woman named Ann Hodges, making it one of the first documented cases of a meteorite hitting a person. This meteorite is significant not only for its unusual impact but also for its scientific value. It provides insights into the early solar system and the formation of planets. The Sylacauga meteorite is now housed in the collection of the Alabama Museum of Natural History.
