"Clues to the gas giant’s changing orbit come from the magnetic nanoparticles inside a meteorite’s parent body."(The meteorite is the 18 Jan 2000 Tagish Lake, British Columbia, fall.  The article reports that the presence of aqueous-forming minerals, in particular the magnetite analyzed therein, points to the parent body's formation as a Kuiper Belt object.)
