    Title: The Origin of Chondrules
    Lecturer: Dr. Alan Rubin, University of California, Los Angeles
    Chondrules are submillimeter-size igneous spherules that formed after the crystallization of free-floating silicate-rich droplets in the solar nebula. Their immediate precursors were highly porous millimeter-to-centimeter-size dust aggregates that experienced flash melted, possibly by nebular lightning. Many chondrules appear to have been heated and partly melted more than once; this is indicated by the occurrence in many chondrules of relict grains, overgrowths on phenocrysts, secondary spherical shells (in enveloping compound chondrules), igneous rims, and microchondrule-bearing rims. In addition, P x-ray maps of FeO-rich chondrules reveal complicated thermal and mechanical histories that are otherwise hidden.

    A very information rich presentation. Strong evidence for the multiple heating that lightning can cause. Great presentation.

    Hi Mr Allan. 3 years ago I sent you some pictures of my rocks. I was new, naive and innocent to this game. I didn't know the elements to look for. I didn't know scientific terminology of meteorite. I got excited with what I saw under the lens of my cheap tiny magnifier. So I called and called scientists, geologists including you. All those calls was all dead end. I think discrimination and racism played a big role to all the denials.
    The rocks is full of chondrules, chondrites, widmanstatten pattern, mixed metals, fusion crust, pyroxene, long needles nickels and a lot more. Why did you said that the rocks are basically trash?
    Since I am now so determined that the rocks are meteorite. Looking for geologists to tell me it's meteorite or meteor wrong is a thing in the past with regards to this rocks. What I'm looking for now is classification and extensive testing. I will find that lab wherever on earth.

    I got Indian axe full grove that made out of a meteor. Do you want to test it?

    I'm in your slow learner group. I need to have this replayed in slow motion a couple of times. Nonetheless, the subject matter is fascinating, and I enjoyed the lecture and the way you presented it. Thank you.🤩🌟🌠✴

    Excellent video! Thank you for sharing this! I’ve watched it several times, and learn every time I do! I’d like to see a video for each type category! What exactly makes an angrite different from lodranite etc… I’d like to go back to school, but it’s so expensive, and I appreciate the free education! Please keep making these videos!

    The atheist statement was very poor form! I find scientists that believe in a god bizarre, especially when they work with evidence and facts and there is NO evidence for any of the thousands of gods people have made up in their heads.

    What is with the atheist comment? Poor form.
