Researchers led by the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) are confident they have potentially found a new meteorite parent asteroid, following analysis of a sample of a cosmic debris that collided with our planet 12 years ago. Analysis of Almahata Sitta (AhS) suggests its parent body was an asteroid approximately the size of Ceres, the largest-such body in our solar systems’s primary asteroid belt.

The Solar System Used To Have Another Massive Asteroid Like Ceres

A serendipitous discovery in a recently found meteorite has provided astronomers with a unique window into the very distant past of the solar system and how different it was back then. Today, Ceres is the largest body in the asteroid belt, and it is classified as a dwarf planet. But new research suggests that there was another equally large asteroid in the past. As reported in Nature Astronomy, the findings come from the unusual composition of a piece of the Almahata Sitta meteorite, where the team found a mineral known as amphibole. This can only be created at a certain range of temperatures and pressures, and with a prolonged and significant presence of water. This is the first time that such a mineral has been identified in a meteorite.
