Is this rock possible a meterorite ?

[wpshooter]

Recently, while hunting, I found an approx. 2 foot, roughly cube in shape, rock laying in an open field.

I am wondering if this rock may possibly be a meterorite.

One surface of the rock is completely covered with what looks like small 1/2 to 1 inch diameter impact craters.

The remaining surfaces of the rock is cover by small pin size holes which seem to indicate that the rock is a very porous substance.

Any advice (other than taking it to a professional) on how I can determine if this rock might really be a meterorite or perhaps a volcanic rock ???

Let me know & I will try to provide additional info.

Thanks.

If it's cubical, it's not a meteorite. Also, no porous rock would make it through the incredible heat and pressures of reentry, rofl. Porous rock means it was once part of a volcano here on earth.

in this day and age, you didn't think to take a picture to show it to us to go along with your thread?

WTF?!?

Don't touch it or the radiation will turn you into a human glow stick.

Here's a picture for you, $*#%@& !!!!

Don't claim to be a grammer expert, but at least I am NOT you !!!

Thanks, for the responses that are from a more civilized culture.

Unfortunately, do not have a camera.

This. Buy a rare earth magnet and off you go. If you have the right kind of roof, like shingled, it is fairly easy to find micro-meteorites. I saw a guy on a documentary show how to do it. Put a bucket with the magnet in it at the bottom of your gutter spout near the ground. Wash your roof with a hose, and chances are you will have several micro meteorites in the bucket attached to the magnet.

I like how you are totally uncivilized to him, and then talk about being civilized.

Looks like a magnet is the way to go.

You are welcome.

it sounds like you you found a piece of porous rock that's experienced some erosion.

a pock-mocked surface is present on a lot of meteorites, but they're still generally pretty obvious solid mass, not really 'porous.' though i can recall seeing a lot of examples that just look like normal rounded stones; i always just assumed these were just meteorites that have been on earth a long, long time.

no digital camera? laptop webcam? phone camera? no friends/family with such?

i think someone's not trying very hard to stake claim to their valuable asteroid and/or rock and/or giant poo fossil.
