The first of the temporary exhibits is a display of meteorites and tektites from the UD Mineral Museum collection. These meteorites are the least common to fall on the Earth, but the most common found due to their noticeable difference from terrestrial rocks. The meteorite in the lower left corner was found in Youndigan, Australia and shows both Widmanstatten structure and a fusion crust. The vial in the center holds meteorite spherules, tiny meteorites that fell upon the Earth. In front of the vial is a meteorite that also shows a fusion crust.

It is called a 'clay ball' and is what iron meteorites look like after being exposed to the environment at the Earth's surface. The meteorites in the lower left corner are stony-iron, those on the right are stony. The rightmost stony meteorite is a piece of the famous Allende meteorite . More iron and stony meteorites. The iron meteorite in the lower right is one that shows Widmanstatten structure even better than the above meteorite.
