<![CDATA[ There are only a few known fields of tektites in the entire world, and scientists just found another in Brazil. ]]>
Tektites are natural glass objects formed from terrestrial debris ejected during meteorite impacts. They are typically found in strewn fields and can provide valuable information about the impact events that created them.
Impact craters are formed when an object, such as a meteorite, collides with a planetary surface at high speed. They provide valuable information about the history of the planet, including its geological processes and the frequency of impacts over time.
