Beschrijving

Bol The Cranbourne meteorite was a discovery of major scientific interest, and colonial/imperial scientific controversy. After an astonishing astronomical discovery was made near Melbourne, two scientists jostled for possession of the world’s largest iron meteorite. At a time of growing national awareness in Australia, colonial scientists challenged imperial assumptions of ownership of discoveries of interest. At stake was a glittering prize, and a chance to gain an other-worldly talisman of local identity. We discover who prevailed.
