Step 12.  Observing the Micrometeorites

Carefully place the magnet under one of the microscope slides containing black specks that were poured from the small glass dish.  As before, you can use the magnet’s field to group your sample(s) in a central location on the microscope slide.
 

Place the microscope slides under the microscope and examine your micrometeorites.
 

Proceed to Sample View (warning: the picture files are large) or return to Micrometeorite Main Page
