The recent Chelyabinsk fireball / meteorite fall is an exceptional event with good scientific data coverage. The session will focus on results obtained on fireball trajectory, orbital analysis, recovered meteorites, as well as on broader aspects of Solar System rocky material properties including laboratory analysis of meteorites, cosmic dust, and observations and modeling of both meteoroids and asteroids. The contributions bridging the gap between properties of meteors, meteorites and asteroids are highly welcome.
