TL;DR Summary

Physicists propose a new method to confirm the existence of the Chinguetti meteorite by suggesting a magnetometer-based survey of specific areas in the Sahara desert where it could potentially be located. The researchers re-evaluated existing evidence and identified two likely areas where the meteorite might be buried under sand dunes, emphasizing that previous searches may have been conducted in the wrong area. This approach offers a promising opportunity to finally solve the mystery surrounding the elusive Chinguetti meteorite.
