Asteroid Match

Peter Jenniskens

A Feb. 28, 2009 photo released by NASA shows Peter Jenniskens, meteor astronomer at NASA Ames Research Center and the SETI Institute Mountain View, Calif., in the Sudan as he found his first 2008TC3 meteorite, which broke into two pieces when it landed. For the first time scientists matched a meteorite found on Earth with a specific asteroid that became a fireball plunging through the sky. It gives them a glimpse into the past when planets formed and an idea how to avoid a future asteroid Armageddon. (AP Photo/NASA)
