ordinary chondrites
Ordinary chondrites are a type of stony meteorite that are among the most common in the solar system. They are primarily composed of small, round particles called chondrules, which are formed from molten droplets that cooled quickly in space. These meteorites provide valuable insights into the early solar system and the processes that formed planets.
These meteorites are classified into three main groups: H chondrites, L chondrites, and LL chondrites, based on their metal content and mineral composition. Ordinary chondrites are believed to originate from the asteroid belt, where they are remnants of the building blocks of planets. Their study helps scientists understand the history and evolution of our solar system.
