Oriented meteorites form when a meteorite do not
tumble during its atmospheric trip. As it stabilizes it continues
its rotation, the ablation results in a shield form with usualy is
flat on the reverse. Sometimes the orientation of the meteorite
accumulate boiling rock on the back of the stone witch result on the
formation of a thick deposit with many bubbles in the melt oriented
meteorite, we call that bubbling in our descriptions. oriented
meteorites are very rare and only few collections own a real
oriented specimens. Here are some very nice oriented chondrites:
