This 308 gram shrapnel fragment came from out there, 4.5 billion years ago+ and landed in Egypt 5000 years ago, before the first pharaoh or pyramid,it is an ataxite (80% Iron 20% nickel,roughly), it has no Widmanstatten pattern and is ungrouped, which means it could be older than 4.54 billion years :)
