This template can be used to provide comparative, at-a-glance information on meteorites.

Usage

Cut and paste the following lines at the beginning of the document and then fill with data. Do not edit the first line and field names.

Parameters

Only bold fields are mandatory.

  • Name: official name of the meteorite without any abbreviation. For any doubt take a look here [1] because [2]. For example: Willamette or Sayh al Uhaymir 001 and not Willamette Meteorite or SAU 001.
  • Alternative names: comma separated alternative names
  • Image: image name (eg. Willamette Meteorite AMNH.jpg), this is the default image
  • Image_caption: description of image. If left empty will be filled with the meteorite name.
  • Image_width: with portrait images sometimes is useful to reduce the size
  • Type: Iron, Stony-Iron, Chondrite or Achondrite
  • Class: choose from this list (see Meteorite classification)
    • Ordinary chondrite
    • Carbonaceous chondrite
    • Enstatite chondrite
    • Rumuruti chondrite
    • Pallasite
    • Mesosiderite
    • Primitive achondrite [1]
    • Asteroidal achondrite [2][3]
    • Lunar meteorite
    • Martian meteorite
  • Group: the recommended classification group, take a look here [3]. (Examples: H3, L6, LL4, Shergottite, Eucrite, Lunar Basalt, Eagle Station Pallasite, IAB, IIIAB, IVB, etc.)
  • Structural_classification: only for irons and, if applicable, stony-irons (eg. Coarsest Octahedrite or Ataxite)
  • Composition: chemical (irons) or mineral (stony) composition (eg. 93% Fe, 5.9% Ni, 0.42% Co, 0.46% P)
  • Shock: for example S4
  • Weathering: for example W1
  • Country: for example United States or Sweden
  • Region: for example Oregon or Uppsala
  • Lat_Long: coordinates using this format {{coord|46|09|N|134|39|E|display=inline,title}}
  • Observed_fall: Yes or No
  • Fall_date: date of the observed fall (eg. 12 February 1947) or estimated date (eg. 20000 years ago)
  • Found_date: date of found
  • TKW: Total Known Weight, eg. 300 kg
  • Image2: a second image showing additional details (eg. chondrules or Widmanstätten pattern, see for example Gibeon (meteorite))
  • Image2_caption: short description of the second image (eg. Widmanstätten pattern)
