      The biggest rock that is still in one piece from space is called the Hoba meteroite, and it’s 66 tons! There have been many big meteorites in the past but they usually hit the ground with so much energy that they break up and create a big explosion. It’s a big rock like this that is thought to have killed all the dinosaurs.That rock was probably 10 km wide!
