The iron in iron meteorites was forged in the cores of massive stars. The meteorite itself is a remnant of the iron core from either a planetesimal or planet that formed in the early solar system that was then destroyed by a collision.
@evilscientistca And pallasites are the spectacularly beautiful edges of those cores where the iron started becoming intermixed with rock! ❤
