{"product_id":"tatahouine-diogenite-tunisia-1-56-g-copy","title":"Tatahouine - Diogenite - Fragment - 1.84g - Tunisia","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"26\" data-end=\"486\"\u003eTatahouine is a historic witnessed Diogenite fall from Tunisia, which fell near Foum Tatahouine on 27 June 1931. The fall was reported after a low atmospheric explosion, scattering many small fragments over an area northeast of the village. As a Diogenite, Tatahouine belongs to the HED Achondrite family, strongly associated with asteroid 4 Vesta, and represents material from deeper within Vesta’s crust or upper mantle. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"488\" data-end=\"918\"\u003eSpecimens of Tatahouine are typically pale green to yellow-green, with dark shock veins and a crystalline texture dominated by orthopyroxene. Most recovered material consists of small angular fragments, with larger pieces being particularly uncommon. Its distinctive colour, fragile nature, and historic fall provenance make it one of the most recognisable Diogenites available to collectors. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"920\" data-end=\"1345\"\u003eFor collectors, Tatahouine offers a rare combination of witnessed fall history, classic HED classification, and strong visual character. Its connection to Vesta, limited recovered mass, and long-standing scientific interest make it especially appealing for Achondrite, witnessed fall, and historic meteorite collections. Each specimen represents ancient Vestan material connected to a clearly documented fall in North Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OuterSpacer Meteorites","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56132539547974,"sku":"TAT-02\/18","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/0518\/8678\/files\/Tatahouine03-7.jpg?v=1773073192","url":"https:\/\/outerspacer.com\/products\/tatahouine-diogenite-tunisia-1-56-g-copy","provider":"OuterSpacer Meteorites","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
