Where Do Meteorites Come From?

If you've ever held a real meteorite in your hand, you probably wanted to know, "Where has this rock been in space and where did it come from?" Until now, no one has been able to definitively establish where the majority of meteorites found on Earth came from because of the changes that occur in meteorites after they are ejected from the asteroids they were originally part of.

Two astronomers say have determined that most of these meteorites come from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Using the GEMINI telescope, they found that asteroids in that region are similar to chondrites found on Earth.
