Westenden pattern: There are three types of meteorites, iron meteorites, stony meteorites and stony-iron meteorites. Among them, the main components of iron meteorites are iron-nickel alloy components, which exist in elemental form. The identification of most iron meteorites only needs to rely on the dimension pattern. The so-called dimensional pattern, the full name of the translation is the Westenden pattern, is the arrangement of the iron and nickel element crystals in the meteorite, criss-crossing, the dimensional pattern is theoretically formed by the crystallization of one degree of cooling every million years in the microgravity environment of space. The iron-nickel structure can only be revealed under the action of nitric acid or other pickling solutions. The top scientific laboratories of mankind have tried countless times to simulate the cooling environment to imitate the dimension pattern, but it was all in vain. So far it has been impossible to imitate! The iron-nickel crys tal Westenden of iron meteorites has clear and beautiful lines. The charm of gems lies in fire, and the charm of meteorites lies in luster. Most of the time, the dimensional patterns of the meteorites are not noticeable, but they are just crystal lines, but the refraction of the light by the meteorites will give you an instant surprise when the angle changes, and the dazzling silver light will suddenly be refracted. But it disappeared in an instant. This is an infinite charm and surprise, a gift from the universe and space.
