Possible Huge Chunk Of Russian Meteorite Found


The largest discovered fragment of the Russian Chelyabinsk meteorite, weighing around 570 kilograms (1,256 pounds), has been lifted from the bed of Lake Chebarkul in the Urals.

The huge meteorite chunk split into three pieces when scientists tried to weigh it. The precise weight could not be established because the heavy object broke the scales.
