Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone has a developed a how to guide for caring for
this meteorite.

it , but i also heard, freezing it damages the crystals.
I'm also curious, doesn't bacteria grow on everything and all

the follow up to this question/answer I still wonder about is:
after dark flight begins, how many seconds will it take to completely
decelerate so that all forward momentum is lost after dark flight
starts.
for example: if the meteor goes dark at 4km/s how many seconds before
it will be at 0km/s

It is also worth noting the mass estimate of the meteoroid -- 90kg,
