There is probably a more accurate way of saying it but, I would venture to
guess it's being emitted by the oxygen in the atmosphere as it is

Hi Mark,
but technically - and that's why we all shall let our fingers from them -
some argue and believe that the object "meteorite" in itself is a cultural
heritage.
Even some curators!
No matter whether it has been found yet, no matter if ever human hand had
touched it.

It would be expensive. It's hard to imagine the political and economic
