Meteorwrong

The opposite of a meteorite. Meaning it is not a meteorite.

I thought I'd found a real meteorite but it turned out to be a meteorwrong.

Strewnfield

A strewnfield is a geographic area representing a field where meteorites have been strewn. In other words it is the area of land that they landed on after entering our atmosphere. This gives finders a designated area to look for more of the material and offers science a chance to study and determine certain information about a fall. ie, what size landed where and why?

One would find a meteorite from a particular fall within this certain area we call a Strewnfield .

Cold-Find

When you find something new that you did not expect to find and or were not looking for that particular object.

The first meteorite I ever found was a cold-find while actually looking for gold.
