The magnetic sled thing was neat. I guess the assumption was that most meteorites are something like nickel-iron and pieces can be attracted by magnetic forces.
I hope the Harvard professor uses advice from a materials scientist about how the globes might have formed. I assume that the hot meteor exploded, and the molten metal drops became globes with crystallized metal atom arrays. This probably created the hardened steel and is NOT the broken fragments of a spaceship hull.
