Angels general manager Billy Eppler provided a positive update Thursday on the recovery of his two-way star, who had surgery Oct. 1.

Meteorites containing water are probably not scarce, Zolensky says. But by the time researchers get their hands on the rocks, minerals that trap the water have dissolved away, and the water has evaporated. Worse, some researchers destroy the aqueous evidence by cutting meteorites open with rock saws and water. “I’m betting this isn’t such a rare find; it’s just that people have been mistreating their meteorites,” Zolensky says. Of course, Zolensky’s team did get a bit lucky....
