How did this entire article not answer the most important question? Did this man have homeowners insurance or does he have to repair his house out of pocket?

I want to know if the homeowner gave up one of the most valuable rocks on earth for free, or if it was stolen from them, or if they made bank from it.

The meteorite contained a wide variety of soluble organic compounds, and its compositional range confirms that the Hillsborough meteorite was more altered by water than most other CM-type meteorites.
"A high fraction of compounds were the product of organic chemistry with minerals," said organic mass spectrometry specialist Phil Schmitt-Kopplin of Technical University Munich. "We do not know if these magnesium organic compounds were contributed by brine chemistry or were simply left over from earlier impact shock processes."

Asteroids don't stay warm for very long. For organic compunds to be forming in a transient brine here, they must be all over the universe
