Koosstissidemete is a term that refers to a specific type of meteorite that has been found in the Koo's Stisse region of the Netherlands. The meteorite is notable for its unique composition and the circumstances surrounding its discovery. The term "koosstissidemete" is a combination of the Dutch words "koo" (meaning "cow") and "stisse" (meaning "kick"), reflecting the local legend that the meteorite fell after a cow kicked a hole in the sky.

The meteorite was discovered in 1999 by a group of local farmers who were clearing a field.

It is estimated to be around 4.5 billion years old, making it one of the oldest known objects in the solar system.

The discovery of the koosstissidemete has sparked interest among scientists and meteorite enthusiasts alike. Its unique composition and the local legend surrounding its discovery have made it a popular subject of study and speculation. The meteorite is currently housed in the Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden, where it is studied by scientists and made available for public viewing.

The koosstissidemete is a reminder of the ongoing process of meteorite impacts on Earth and the importance of studying these celestial objects to better understand the history of our solar system. Its discovery in the Koo's Stisse region has also contributed to the local folklore and has become a symbol of the region's rich scientific and cultural heritage.
