The study was led by Dr Luke Daly (GES) who led the search party which recovered the largest fragment of the Winchcombe meteorite after it was spotted as a fireball streaking across the skies over Gloucestershire on February 28th, 2021. Analysis of those minerals within the Winchcombe meteorite will help scientists unravel the answers to questions around the processes which formed our Solar System, including the possible origins of the Earth’s water.
