What is a thin section?       What do all the colors mean?    
Thin section in cross polarized light.   CV 3

TKW 6.2 kg. Fall not observed. Found 1943, McLennon County, Texas, USA.

Found in 1943, but only recognized as a meteorite in 1993.

I think I see a resemblance between that big blue chondrule and the painting of The Scream. Do you?
