The Sylacauga Meteorite

What is commonly known as The Hodges Meteorite, is called Sylacauga by those who study it. One such meteorite expert is Dr. Julia Cartwright, Assistant Professor at the University of Alabama, who is currently doing analysis on the meteorite to help us understand more about how this star fell on Alabama in 1954. Visit the Alabama Museum of Natural History and see Sylacauga for yourself! • Alabama Museum of Natural History Website: • The University of Alabama Museums Website: • Become a UA Museums Supporting Member: • Become a UA Museums Student Member: #UAMuseums #HodgesMeteorite #Sylacauga
