Paper [Avi Loeb, et al.] – Recovery and Classification of Spherules from the Pacific Ocean Site of the CNEOS 2014 January 8 (IM1) Bolide

Electron probe and mass spectrometry findings regarding the spherules returned from ocean floor sample retrievals – findings refute previous claims that coal ash was responsible.

“A small portion of the D-spherules show an excess of Be, La and U, by up to three orders of magnitude relative to the solar system standard of CI chondrites, and a composition pattern that is distinctly different from coal fly ash.”

… very interesting read and promising findings. Science!
