Detecting meteorites with Leanne 

Many of us find special rocks when we're out exploring. In this #STEMyourBoredom video the South Australian Museum's Manager of Education Leanne Wheaton talks about meteorites, which are rocks that fall to Earth from outer space, and helps us figure out if we've found one.
You will need:
- some rocks
- a surface such as a sandpit or a tray containing soil or sand
- some small balls, such golf balls or superballs, and/or some marbles
- a metre long ruler or stick to measure height, a smaller ruler or 'calipers'
- a squeegee to smooth the surface, or you can use your hand or a stick instead.
