Team Leader Yuan carefully examined the photos and asked, "Is this crystal structure inherent in celestial bodies, or did it form when the meteoroid exploded during its fall?"
The detection analyst said, "We lean toward the latter. The conditions required to form this type of crystal structure are extremely stringent and might have involved a significant energy exchange within a very short period of time.
"According to the data we have collected through detection analysis, we found that this fire meteor is likely from the same parent body as another fire meteor discovered more than a decade ago. However, the special crystal structures inside them are different. We can use this crystal structure to distinguish the samples."
