EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of a meteorite called Jepara, discovered in Java, Indonesia back in 2008. Weighing an astounding 499 kilograms, this extraterrestrial rock is classified as a siderite type meteorite due to its composition primarily consisting of nickel and iron. The image itself provides us with a glimpse into the intricate details of this celestial marvel. Through polarized light micrography, we are able to witness olivine crystals embedded within a pallisite iron-nickel matrix. The contrast between these vibrant green crystals and the metallic backdrop creates an otherworldly aesthetic that leaves us in awe. Measuring at just 2.4mm horizontally, this photograph allows us to appreciate the fine intricacies present within this ancient space artifact. It serves as a reminder of the vastness and mystery of our universe, where celestial bodies like meteors travel through time and space before finding their way onto our planet. As we delve into the world of minerals and mineralogy, images like these provide valuable insights into the formation processes that shape our cosmos. Alfred Pasieka's skillful capture not only highlights the scientific significance but also celebrates the sheer beauty found within nature's creations.
