Antarctica: Turkish scholar collects 10,000 meteoroids
A Turkish scientist has collected over 10,000 micrometeoroids in Antarctica for astronomical research.
Working from the Belgian Antarctica base, Mehmet Yeşiltaş said that he focused on micrometeoroids with his Belgian and Japanese counterparts.
Yeşiltaş said researchers first began to collect micrometeoroids this year, with samples from mountains in the continent's east.
