Too colorful
Meteorites are not colorful
Most meteorites are shades of grays and browns. Some may be reddish on the outside. If it is colorful, then it is not a meteorite.
All of these photos below were sent to me by people who questioned whether the rocks might be meteorites. None are meteorites. Besides being too colorful, none of them has a fusion crust.
