Abstract in brief
The asteroid 2018 LA, which struck Botswana on June 2, 2018, is notable for being only the second asteroid detected before hitting land, with successful recovery of 23 meteorites following the impact.
The study of these meteorites, particularly those classified as Motopi Pan, reveals their composition as HED polymict breccias linked to Vesta and its Vestoids, with data suggesting the asteroid had a diameter of approximately 156 cm and a density of 2.85 g/cm.
The research includes precise dating of the asteroid's history, revealing its impact pathway and connections to older geological events, culminating in discussions about the likely source crater of Motopi Pan and the age of Vesta's Venene

Can you imagine what life might be like if politics were as successful as astrophysics? Why isn’t political as successful as science?

The impact and recovery of asteroid 2018 LA
"The June 2, 2018, impact of asteroid 2018 LA over Botswana is only the second asteroid detected in space prior to impacting over land. Here, we report on the successful recovery of meteorites."

Desde Meteoritics and Planetary Science, han señalado a Vesta como el origen del meteorito 2018 LA. Vesta es el segundo cuerpo más grande y masivo del cinturón de Asteroides que está situada entre las órbitas de Marte y Júpiter.

@Catalunya_Press 2018 LA fue descubierto 8 horas antes de impactar. Se habría desprendido de Vesta hace 22 millones de años. Ahora forma parte de la Tierra.
