"Extraterrestrial Impact: Unraveling the Mystery of Yellow Glass in African Desert"

Researchers have traced the origin of a mysterious yellow glass found in the Great Sand Sea Desert in Africa to an extraterrestrial impact from a meteorite 29 million years ago. The glass, which has high levels of silica, has remained a mystery for almost a century. Advanced microscopy technology revealed the presence of zirconium oxide, indicating the intense pressure and temperature needed to create it. While researchers believe it was an extraterrestrial impact, they still need to find the parental crater to confirm their findings. The yellow glass was also found attached to a pendant in Tutankhamun's tomb, highlighting its significance during ancient Egyptian times.
