I teach Astronomy at Seguin High School in Seguin, Texas

What event happened on Earth as evidenced by this student created “ice core” in Earth and Space Science? Would you believe a meteor hit Earth? Yellow is Iridium, and black is Palladium, so that must be what happened! @SeguinHSTx @SeguinISD #matadorscience #matadorfamily
