Keep an eye out for a dark rock fragment if you are out and about on Ben Alder. Should be super easy to spot...

To be fair they do acknowledge it might be a bit of a long shot.
Aye, cos Ben Alder summit has so few other rocks on to assist with spotting them.... 😉
Not so much a needle in a haystack, as a needle in a stack of needles
If only it had left a W3W address. Bloody thoughtless, these alien artefacts! (mutter, grumble, moan…).
That looks like a slice of stornoway black pudding. I doubt it would survive re entry
(mutter, grumble, moan…).
I just typed that into W3W and the closest match is mutter.grumble.moon. Which is in Arkansas.

From the BBC article:
"If someone is lucky enough to bag a meteorite while bagging a Munro, we're asking them to take a photo and take a note of their GPS location and send it to the UK Fireball Alliance."
How cool would it be to have that as your job title?!
What do you do?
Oh I work for the Fireball Alliance.
Hadouken being the standard greeting at the fireball alliance AGM.
To be fair they do acknowledge it might be a bit of a long shot.
I like what you did there, maybe millions of km in a year 😉
