We have the Martian type meteorite, and we have the
Lunar meteorite and last, the asteroid 4Vesta meteorite.
These we know where they come from.
Now the question---given enough energy, can a meteorite
hit earth and eject debris which (maybe) land on the moon
or Mars? What would we call such a meteorite---Earthoid,
or maybe Earthite?
Just contemplating my navel here.
