Modify Concept: Meteorite composition #274

Closed mkelley closed 4 years ago

mkelley commented 5 years ago

Name the concept in question 1034 Meteorite composition

Describe the change "Meteorite composition" is located under "Interplanetary physics." Meteorites are exogenous materials on the surfaces of planets. Instead, "Composition" may be added under "Solar system astronomy | Solar system | Meteoroids | Meteorites."

STScI staff agree with Mike Kelley's suggestion:

Place Meterorites under: Solar system astronomy | Solar system | Meteoroids | Meteorites

and further

Solar system astronomy | Solar system | Meteoroids | Meteorites | Meteorite composition

The study of the composition of meteorites is its own subfield and warrants its own narrower term.
