Hello Meteorite list,
Here's a question/topic I would imagine the list has seen before.  I
have read somewhere that a piece of the Cape York meteorite, possibly
Ahnighito, has a place on it which shows an exposed Widmanstätten
structure due to a softer layer of the outside being ablated away.
(Don't hold me to that being fact, I'm going off memory here)  If I
am remembering this correctly, I would like to ask if anyone on the
list has taken a picture of that feature?  If so, would you be
willing to share a link to it so that I can take a look at it?  My
interest stems from my having this little stone with what appears to
be a structure showing.
