Features: At 72°56′30″ S latitude, 75°16′39″ E longitude, and an altitude of 2,036 meters in the Grove Glacier region, I accidentally fell flat on my face. Feeling frustrated, I looked up and saw a brown, loaf-shaped stone in front of me—it was a meteorite! I became the 15th person in China to discover an Antarctic meteorite. The 280-gram treasure was named "Qiang Ying GRV021604."
