WHAT DOES CHONDRULE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

chondrule

Chondrule

Chondrules are round grains found in chondrites. Chondrules form as molten or partially molten droplets in space before being accreted to their parent asteroids. Because chondrites represent one of the oldest solid materials within our solar system and are believed to be the building blocks of the planetary system, it follows that an understanding of the formation of chondrules is important to understand the initial development of the planetary system.

Definition of chondrule in the English dictionary

The definition of chondrule in the dictionary is one of the small spherical masses of mainly silicate minerals present in chondrites.
