Livingston mystery rock might be from space
By SCOTT JASON sjason@mercedsun-star.com LIVINGSTON -- It's clear a 170-pound black boulder doesn't belong embedded half-a-foot into a sandy loam field north of Livingston. The puzzle is whether it fell from the sky -- a meteorite on a collision course with Earth. Or if the giant rock was abandoned 10 feet off the road for some unknown reason, coincidentally about the same time residents saw a fireball burning in the Central Valley sky. The missing piece of information should be known in a few weeks, if not sooner. Photo by Brandon Bowers Jerry McAlwee, left, and Tim Mihalko look over a boulder they found in a field north of Livingston. They suspect it could be a meteorite that was seen streaking over Merced skies in late December. Merced Sun-Star - Merced Sun-Star photo by Brandon Bowers Jerry McAlwee looks over a boulder in a field near his girlfriend's home north of Livingston. He suspects it could be a meteorite that was seen streaking over Merced skies in late December. * * * * * * Jerry McAlwee, the self-described rock hound who found the boulder with a friend, hopes it's an extraterrestrial discovery. And even if it's not, the suspense is worth the time and effort. "It's kind of a CSI-type thing," he said Tuesday. "If it's not a meteorite, I don't know how to explain some of the things (about the rock)." For example, magnets stick to most of its surface. Part of its crust is melted and smooth. The grass is stained around it. con't con't |
