AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Opportunity to have a piece of the Moon in your hands.

A superb piece with a large surface area and light weight

Due to the enormous impact of a meteorite on the Moon's surface, material from the planet was ejected into outer space; this material traveled through space until, due to the gravity of our planet, or because our trajectory encountered these fragments, they eventually ended up falling to Earth.

Except for the Apollo missions and the almost 380 kg of lunar samples they brought back to Earth, this is the only way we have to touch a piece of the Moon.

The display case is included

At Expometeoritos, we handle outreach, talks, workshops, analyses, classification and exhibitions of Meteorites.

We are members of:
.- IMCA (International Meteorite Collectors Association) #8187
.- Meteoritical Society
.- American Meteor Society

All of our pieces are certified and, furthermore, we provide the chemical composition analysis if the piece's value exceeds €300, carried out at our facilities by X-ray Spectroscopy.

Seller's Story

We seek pieces of the cosmos to put the universe in your hands. At Expometeoritos we dedicate ourselves to exploring the most inhospitable corners of the planet in search of meteorites and all those elements (Impactites, Suevites, Tectites, etc.) that attest to what the universe around us is like and how it works. We are adventurers, curious and restless by nature, and thanks to this project we can bring the secrets of the cosmos to all of you in a different way. We organize educational talks, exhibitions, we perform analysis and classification, cutting and polishing of meteorites and, moreover, we offer you the best pieces so you can acquire them and have a piece of the universe in your own home. Our commitment is complete and we want you to have full guarantees and confidence, which is why all of our pieces are certified and, in addition, an analysis of their chemical composition is included if the piece’s value exceeds €300. The analysis is carried out at our facilities by X-ray Spectroscopy. The pieces will be shipped via UPS express service 24/48 hours. We are members of: - IMCA (International Meteorite Collectors Association) #8187 - GMA (Global Meteorite Association) #0078 - Meteoritical Society - American Meteor Society Certified member No. 8187 authorized by IMCA for issuing official certificates.
