I was just about to start typing a comment along the lines of "come on now, you're really stretching it thin here". Then I took a second and realized that it really only means "not from earth" which yes, I guess any space rock is that.

Link to pdf of original article from 1933. no https for Italy?: http://www.qattara.it/DESERTO%20EGIZIANO_FILES/silica.pdf 1933 must be a record for resurrecting old news. sciencealert claims to be timely, ya right https://www.sciencealert.com/cannabis-use-linked-to-epigenetic-changes-scientists-reveal is 6 months old. At least they link to sources for further reading.
