what is its density (relative to water.)
what is its analysis? ambergris???

National Radiation Laboratory scientists today pored over the 15cm by
7cm by 3.5cm grey-black object found in a Dunsandel paddock yesterday
after a massive sonic boom above Canterbury.

>???? previously 10x5x5cm ? uncertain.
what is its volume? mass.?

Dunsandel woman Tanya Haigh found the mysteriously light piece of rock
and handed it to police last night suspecting it might have been a
fragment of the meteor that flashed across southern skies just before
3pm.
...

The object's density was about one-tenth of what would normally be
expected of a meteorite.

He said the object would be held at the laboratory until Miss Haigh as
the "owner" indicated what she wanted done with it.
