Extraterrestrial particles collected during U-2 flights in the stratosphere were divided into four groups: chondritic, iron-sulfur--nickel, mafic silicates, and others. The atlas contains 27 figures of representative particles from each of the groups with x-ray emission spectra and descriptive mineralogy.
