Many unexpected findings from comet dust
According to the analysis of comet dust samples brought back from space by American Stardust spacecraft, it was surprising in the scientific world. These comet dust contains Olivine minerals rich in mage and many other minerals rich in calcium, aluminum, titanium and minerals that are formed at very high temperatures.
These minerals are formed in areas near the Sun or inside the Sun, but have moved to the coldest region on the edge of the solar system, where many comets are formed. Olivine is the most common mineral in the universe and is a major component of green sand found in many places on Hawaii beaches.
American astronomers affirmed that unexpected discoveries from these comet dust samples opened up a new direction in space research. Comet components are complex substances formed at temperatures ranging from super high to super cold.
The US spacecraft flew in close to 250 km from Comet Wild 2 in January 2004 and ended the 7-year space journey after landing in the Utah desert (USA) on the 15th. 1/2006. Stardust brought about samples of comet dust that were considered unchanged within 4.6 billion years after the formation of the solar system.
