Metty is a space rock! Follow a young meteoroid as he loops about the Sun, visits asteroids, makes a meteor, and ends up as a meteorite on Earth. Here, he meets a special young girl. Yet all the while, he is the same fun-loving Metty.
I am a Professor of Astronomy at the University of Northern Iowa. Yet more than any professional award I have won, I enjoy spending time with my grandson Alexander. Alex loves the picture books that his Grampa reads to him. He enjoys the stories I make up, as well. This is my first attempt at combining the two. Alexander and I hope you learn from and enjoy Metty the Meteoroid.
Asteroid 25153 is named TomHockey.
