> We spoke to Laura Henderson Lewis, one of the professors on the Northeastern team, and she told us the material found in the meteorites is a combination of two base metals, nickel and iron, which were cooled over millions of years as meteors tumbled through space.

That just can't be right. Why would a meteor take millions of years to cool? White dwarf or even a planet, sure, but a meteor?
