   ocr: Meteorite - I 34-ton Ahnighito (which means "the tent"), the 3-ton Woman, and the 880-pound Dog, were parts of the Cape York meteorite shower. The other main masses from this shower are the 20-ton Agpalilik and the 3.4-ton Savik I, which can be seen in the Natural History Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark. Meteorites are meteors that reach the surface of the Earth without having disintegrated. 2112
