Space rock from Earth

The meteorite NWA 13188 seems to have travelled to space and back. 

“A meteorite found in the Sahara desert in Morocco may have originated on Earth, before being blasted into space and returning from orbit thousands of years later.”

 If confirmed, this space rock would be the first that we know about..

Almost all the meteorites have come from asteroids but only a fraction have come from Mars or the moon.

Reseachers  have also found two asteroids as part of a hunt for rocks that are closer to the sun than Earth and may sometime hit the Earth,

A spectacular fireball blazing at 32,000 mph or 51,500 km/h a spectacular fireball blazing across the skies above North Carolina on Friday evening (Sept. 24), the American Meteor Society (AMS) reported.

Fireballs was seen in England recently and in Norway,

A fireball could also have detonated over the ancient Middle Eastern city of Tall el-Hamman or Sodom around 3,600 years ago. It's possible that the explosion, which was roughly 1,000 times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, set the city instantly ablaze before levelling it with a powerful shockwave, killing all of its inhabitants

That why the biblical Testament is always correct,

Evolutionists: A 4.6 Billion Year old protoplanet in the early solar system spawned a unique type of meteorite

Evolutionists believe that a lonely meteorite that landed in the Sahara Desert in 2020 is older than  Earth. The primeval space rock is supposedly about 4.6 billion years old, and is the oldest known example of magma from space.

 

The meteorite, called Erg Chech 002 (EC 002), is likely a rare surviving chunk of a lost baby planet that was destroyed or absorbed by bigger rocky planets during our solar system's formation. 

Approximately 3,100 known meteorites originated in crust and mantle layers of rocky asteroids, but they reveal little about protoplanet diversity when our solar system was young. About 95% come from just two parent bodies, and around 75% of those originated from one source — possibly the asteroid 4 Vesta, one of the largest objects in the asteroid belt, the researchers reported.

 Here’s how the evolutionists claimed it: EC 002 stood out. Radioactive versions, or isotopes, of aluminum and magnesium indicated that the meteorite's parent was an ancient body dating to 4.566 billion years ago, and EC 002's chemical composition revealed that it emerged from a partly-melted magma reservoir in the parent body's crust.

 

This is just an example of Darwinian speculation.

Will this Mysterious Asteroid Usher In The Calamities Of Revelation?

The last book of the Bible, the Revelation speaks of an object (probably an that asteroid) that is called Wormwood shakes the Earth in a little while.  

“The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water-- the name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.”

Now, science talks about an asteroid that can hurl rocks at Earth. It has to do with the meteorite that exploded over Sudan in 2008.

"NASA had spotted the 9-ton (8,200 kilograms), 13-foot (4 meters) meteor heading toward the planet well before impact, and researchers showed up in the Sudanese desert to collect an unusually rich haul of remains. Now, a new study of one of those meteorites suggests that the meteor may have broken off of a giant asteroid — one more or less the size of the dwarf planet Ceres, the largest object in the asteroid belt."

 

"Some of these meteorites are dominated by minerals providing evidence for exposure to water at low temperatures and pressures," study co-author Vicky Hamilton, a planetary geologist at the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colorado, said in the statement. "The composition of other meteorites points to heating in the absence of water."

Now, Jupiter takes care of almost all asteroids, so this one must be arranged by God.
