------------------Meteorite(Gibeon)----------------------------

Gibeon is an iron meteorite (meteorite) mainly made of iron and nickel discovered in 1936 in Gibeon, Namibia (southern Africa).
It is thought that it fell to Earth about 450 million years ago.
In Japan, meteorites have been used as sacred bodies, shinto rituals, festivals, etc. to express the natural intentions.

Speaking of gibeon, it is characterized by a mysterious pattern called Widmanstedten structure, which is characterized by the separation of iron and nickel components in an environment where the mixture of nickel and iron is 100,000 at 300 to 900 ° C., that is, in the process of temperatures dropping several degrees over a million years due to environmentalization such as the center of the planet.
As a result, by attaching polished gibeon to the acid, the pattern can be made by the difference in melting condition.
This is called the Widmanstedten structure.
The method of attaching this acid is called etching, and this Widmanstetten structure is the reason why it cannot help saying that Gibeon was generated outside the earth, and it was probably in the central environment of the star.

Iron meteorites, including Gibeon, seem to feel heavier when held than the weight actually measured by weighing.
It seems that this is closely related to the meteorite being pulled to the earth and falling.

Basically, since the main component is iron, it is generally coated with rhodium etc. on processed products to prevent rust.
Campo del Cielo is also known for the same meteorite
