Scientists in Russia have started collecting and analysing fragments of space rock which crashed into the country on Friday.
Pieces were detected around a frozen lake where a meteorite is believed to have landed.
They say the space rock appears to be made of 10% iron.
It’s hoped research can help us understand more about the rare natural phenomenon which injured more than a thousand people.
