Very cool. These videos ALMOST make me want to take the 15 minute bus ride to this museum, but seeing something in a glass case is far less interesting than hearing someone talk about it.
I drive past Benld all the time on I-55. Never dreamed anything remarkable ever happened there, but I should have known. Remarkable things happen everywhere if you just take time to notice, listen, and learn.
Meteorites are the dust and dirt God sweeps off his front porch. Btw, finding this channel was the greatest. I'm so tired of seeing all kinds of foolishness on youtube ALL THE TIME. We need more channels like this. This teaches kids things that will enrich them instead of enrage them. God bless you.
"We call those meteor-wrongs" 😎
Honestly, we tried to change our channel description to meteor-wrongs, and we were told to change it back. Very disappointed.
@@atlasobscura Well I think you should stand up for your (meteo)rites
_I'll show myself out_
@@aditya95sriram No come back!!!!!
You know you're a science geek when you recognize Jim as the meteorite dude from the Field Museum - but you've never even been to Chicago. 🤭🤓😂
Ha! Jim is famous! We'll let him know :)
It still has brains on it
Absolutely fascinating!! Who knew they would be cold to the touch??
This channel has such a unique vibe!
Thanks! We try :)
🤗☕
"Meteorwrong" made me laugh, haha.
Meteorwrong is now one of our favorite terms.
Beautiful channel, so happy that I found it.
🤗☕

Personally, we think you should still go ;)
I find it funny that a car muffler stopped a meteorite and bounced it back into a car seat.
Car mufflers, the ultimate meteorite prevention method.

What minerals are in the Benld meteorite? BTW I live near Benld.
At the Field Museum...but this isn't the Brain Scoop channel! Honestly, I'll take all the content I can get from there.
Oh, we LOVE Brain Scoop!
@@atlasobscura fingers crossed for a collab with Emily 🤞
I grew up near Benld - it's pronounced "B'n-EL-d". Just had to correct that!

I saw today a Renault 5 in France had same case....but was in parking
I’d love to find a meteorite some day. Are they worth a lot of money?
I love the Field Museum!
Martian space vandals?
