Incredible Meteorite Pieces Found In The Mountains Of Fukang
In 2000, the Fukang Meteorite was found in China. It is one of the most incredible interstellar bodies ever found on the planet. An unnamed hitchhiker saw the meteorite outside Fukang, a town in the northwestern region of Xinjiang. The space rock is made of Pallasite, which is recognizable for the olivine crystal pieces embedded in an iron-nickel matrix. When lit from the back, the slices of the meteorite look like stained glass windows! Scientists have yet to find out the origins of the material, but they believe that the meteorite was formed around 4.5 billion years ago. Whoa.

This Music Typewriter Had A Circular Keyboard With 33 Keys
The Keaton Music Typewriter was patented in 1936 and came with 14 keys. By the ‘50s, it received an update and started to feature 33 keys! The typewriter worked by putting a sheet below the typing mechanism and then the notation marker would begin to type. It might sound complicated, but the truth was that the musical typewriters made it easier to write sheet music. However, it was important for the composer to work very carefully since they needed to start over with a new sheet if they made a mistake. The machine had 3 space keys that let users move the typehead through the units.
