But,.... Could this be ablated material from a meteorite that did make it to earth? I would guess no. I see this thin layer of glass vaporizing as it is created. I don't think the physics are there to support this material melting off a high velocity stone and then combining into a secondary shape before falling to earth.
Interesting thoughts for a Friday night. Thanks for sparking them

Hey, just a thought, could tektites be material ablating off a meteor that just skipped through the atmosphere and never hit earth?

Resending this message, which as usual did not post to the IMCA message group. I'm CCing Meteorite Central in case it fails to show up at IMCA a second time. --Rob
