I'm reading Paul Davies' "The Fifth Miracle". In chapter 6 it refers to
the 1996 discovery by Taylor, Baggaley and Steel of inter-stellar dust
particles entering the earth's atmosphere in the form of fast (>
70-km/s) meteors:

It got me wondering as to whether there are any candidates for
meteorites which may be of extra-solar origin. Are there any? How
would they be identified - a suspiciously long CRE age would perhaps be
one indicator?
