A space rock that punched a hole through a Georgia resident's home earlier this summer may be 20 million years older than our planet, researchers say.
The meteorite streaked across the sky as a fireball on June 26, just before a piece of it struck a house in the city of McDonough. A researcher at the University of Georgia (UGA) studied material recovered from the house and found that the meteorite formed around 4.56 billion years ago — making it about 20 million years older than Earth.
