Scientists and engineers at the University of Nottingham have measured the stiffness of space rock for the first time. Many meteorites are made of crystalline materials, formed under exotic conditions that cannot be replicated on earth. The stiffness of the crystals that make up these materials has historically been difficult to measure and normally this requires scientists to grow a speci
