I found this description of a large rock found much, much further out in the solar system than where it "should" be to be quite interesting:

I'm relatively new to this group, though. Does the history of the solar system seem appropriate, or are we only discussing planet earth and human history?

>1 rocketjk: Very interesting.
And I don't think we are restricted to just this planet. See http://www.librarything.com/topic/277103

This group was inspired by Big History, of which David Christian’s Maps of Time is an exemplar. He starts at the Big Bang. So the history of the universe - and certainly of our one particular solar system - are legitimate topics for consideration. By all means!
