Why this rock
is probably not a meteorite:
Again, the deep holes in this rock are inconsistent with a meteorite.
Also, the rock contains pebbles that stick
out. These "outies" would be the first things to ablate away as a
meteoroid came though the atmosphere. Finally, there's a hint of
a top-to-bottom band on the right side of the rock. Meteorites don't
have linear or planar features like this.

What is it?
Some kind of sedimentary rock. It was found in Indiana, where most
of the rocks are sedimentary.
