Photo 1 shows characteristics of an individual. 3 big regmaglypts with a diameter up to 45mm that indicate an early formation of this plane during its flight through atmosphere. On the regmaglypted side even some little impact craters seem to be present.

Other sides are sharp and disrupted like a shrapnel (pictures No. 2-4). If you take a closer look, you can even see cracks along the crystal pattern (picture 3).

Another side keeps the dynamics of the impact on its surface: distinct shear planes run in two different directions (picture 4).
