Scientific paper

Meteorite showers strike the earth's surface as a result of the breakup of meteoric objects during their flight through the atmosphere, after which tens, hundreds, and thousands of individual samples may be collected. They are scattered over an elliptically shaped area which is called the scattering ellipse. Stony meteorite showers are most common; stony iron and especially iron meteorites are quite rare.
