These gorgeous Libyan desert Glass pack a punch of amazing energy. Their formation is still a mystery as they are formed very different from other Libyan desert stones. Some theories include some type of explosions above the desert sand creating massive heat to form them.

WHAT IS LIBYAN DESERT GLASS MADE OF?
Libyan desert glass is a tektite formed more than twenty-eight million years ago when a meteor collided with the earth near the deserts of Libya. Due to this collision, the temperature became high, and the sand of the Libya desert melted and when suddenly this temperature went down, the sand of the Libya desert froze and took the shape of glass. In this way, the formation of Libyan desert glass takes place.

A FINE EXAMPLE OF DESERT GLASS FROM THE IMPACT OF AN ASTEROID ON EARTH
A complete specimen of lemon-flesh-yellow Libyan Desert Glass, a natural glass formed from melted sand during an asteroid impact.
A pronounced scalloping along the contours, the surfaces with striations and grooves as a result of epochs of sandblasting by desert winds.

"Marking the one hundredth anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun’s magnificent tomb, its incredible treasures are revealed as never before.
In 1922, after fifteen years of searching, archaeologists finally discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamun. There, buried alongside the king’s mummy, they found more than 5,000 unique objects, from the mundane to the extravagant, from the precious to the everyday. Tutankhamun’s spectacular gold mask is justifiably famous, but the rest of the treasures remain largely unknown, their stories untold.
In this rich and beautifully illustrated work of history, renowned Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson allows one hundred artifacts from the boy king’s tomb to speak again―not only for themselves, but as witnesses of the civilization that created them. A gold-decorated chariot reveals the impressive scale of Egyptian technology. Loaves of bread, baskets of fruit, and jars of wine hint at the fertility of the Nile Valley and the abundant feasts enjoyed by its people. Ebony and ivory from Nubia and a jewel of Libyan desert glass show the range of Egypt’s trading and diplomatic networks. Shaving equipment and board games provide a window into the everyday lives of the people. And perhaps most poignant of all the objects in the tomb is one that conjures up a lost world of human experience: Tutankhamun’s silver trumpet.
Through these treasures, Wilkinson bring us face-to-face with the culture of the pharaohs, its extraordinary development, its remarkable flourishing, and its lasting impact. Filled with surprising insights and vivid details, Tutankhamun’s Trumpet offers an indelible portrait of the history, people, and legacy of ancient Egypt."
— Tutankhamun's Trumpet: Ancient Egypt in 100 Objects from the Boy-King's Tomb, by Toby Wilkinson

The Great Sand Sea Desert stretches over an area of 72,000km² linking Egypt and Libya. If you find yourself in a particular part of the desert in south-east Libya and south-western parts of Egypt, you'll spot pieces of yellow glass scattered across the sandy landscape. It was first described in a scientific paper in 1933 and is known as Libyan desert glass. Mineral collectors value it for its beauty, its relative rarity – and its mystery. A pendant found in Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun's tomb contains a piece of the glass. Natural glasses are found elsewhere in the world; examples include moldavites from the Ries crater in Europe and tektites from the Ivory Coast. But none are as rich in silica as Libyan desert glass, nor are they found in such large lumps and quantities. The origin of the glass has been the subject of debate among scientists for almost a century. Some suggested it might be from volcanoes on the moon. Others propose it's the product of lightning strikes ("fulgurites" – glass that forms from fusion of sand and soil where they are hit by lightning).

Libyan desert glass mystery solved
In the Sahara Desert there's a rare mineral on earth which the Egyptians were the first people to understand our cosmos and the first civilization to use science before anyone on earth.
We can tell when European ideology is being explained by European narrative by identifying our world as a man's world because these stupid people believe that women are inferior to them even though our African Ancestors viewed women as the life givers of humanity and saw women as a symbol of God's because they birthed life to all humanity.
So to say that this is a man's world is complete rubbish due to the irrefutable truth that without women there would be no men. I use both science and natural history to educate myself as well as other Black Indigenous People globally, I don't have time to educate anyone else.
There's a lot about Africa that tells us about our natural earth. We can make water out of air with a converter and this is ancient news from Africans before anyone else on earth. We can learn a lot from our African Ancestors than what we can learn from the Europeans.
During the Mesozoic Era we can learn a lot from the Africa Sahara Desert and the prehistoric times millions of years before humans. Fayoun oasis tells us a lot about Africans who were advanced in civilization with the first stone henge on earth.
Cave art was first discovered in Africa which is the oldest in the world. We can either learn from our own natural history or you can keep allowing yourselves to be indoctrinated in the stupid European ideologies. 29 million years ago is the Libyian Desert Glass which is SI02 which is silicon oxide that was used by the Black African Egyptians before any humans on earth.

Spheroid Cristobalite inclusions in Libyan Desert Glass, a rare tektite which formed as a result of a meteorite which exploded over the Egyptian-Libya desert centuries ago. The fireball liquified the desert sands, creating this strange natural glass. The inclusions indicate the extreme temperatures created by the detonation, Cristobalite only forming at between 1470°C and 1705°C.
