Dear Tom and Roman, Unfortunately, it did not land on a marshmallow! Actually, it broke almost parallel to the "brustseite" (front side). It is indeed surprising that these comb fingers survived the impact on the ground. Anyway, it is the best meteorite I ever found in a desert, very fresh, shiny crust, like fallen just a few days before.
