Boomerang Meteorite!

 So, what is a boomerang meteorite? It's a rock that gets knocked off a planet, hangs out in space for a while, then comes back.

Some experts think a meteorite found in the Sahara might be a boomerang. It appears to be a volcanic rock and may have been belched out by a volcano with so much force it went into orbit.

But other experts think that it's not from Earth at all, or that it's not a meteorite but just volcanic rock. There's more analysis being done to see if we can work out for sure. It's kind of cool.
