dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The Allende meteorite is the most studied meteorite, possibly the most studied rock assemblage, in the world. The meteorite has an extremely well documented history and relatively large, gram-sized samples can be obtained easily for relatively low cost. The heterogeneity of the meteorite lends itself to study by many different techniques as is evidenced by the wealth of high-quality publications produced on a range of topics. Indeed, the Allende meteorite has an enviable h-index of 124, with more than 68,240 citations*. The broad reach of this sample, together with preexisting data from many documented studies, makes the Allende meteorite an excellent example sample with which to showcase the capabilities of a suite of complementary instruments such as those found at a large central facility; in this case the Australian Synchrotron. It also provides opportunity for the development of a number of outreach tools targeted at particular stakeholder groups at different technical skill levels. These can be integrated with online platforms and social media tools to find a wider audience and become an educational resource for the broader community. At present the resources are under development specifically with respect to the Australian Synchrotron and this contribution is aimed at raising awareness and garnering support, suggestions and expertise from the planetary science community to help this project grow beyond the facility.en_AU
