Explore how hypervelocity impacts flash-melt Earth rocks into aerodynamic glass, then cool into tektites within strewn fields. We’ll unpack the isotopic fingerprints that prove a terrestrial origin (not lunar) and the physics behind teardrop- and dumbbell-shaped glass. Plus, surprising stories like emus using impact glass as gizzard stones, and what the Australasian field’s undiscovered crater means for our planet’s hidden mysteries.
