AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Hi, my name is Adrian. I am a meteorite hunter and a member of the Polish Meteor Society.
For many years I have been fascinated by space and extraterrestrial matter. My interests in astrophysics, geography, and travel have evolved into a passion for meteorite hunting. I am particularly interested in stony meteorites and the history of their discovery.
Today I would like to offer you one of my own finds – the Pułtusk meteorite.
Pułtusk is one of the best-known Polish meteorites and, at the same time, one of the most famous meteorite showers in history. Its fall occurred on January 30, 1868, in the Pułtusk region in Poland. During this extraordinary event thousands of fragments of a meteorite rained down on the Earth’s surface, forming a vast scatter field.
The specimen offered was found by me in 2026 during my own field searches.
The meteorite weighs 85.62 g and has preserved a beautiful natural fusion crust, a remnant of its passage through the atmosphere. The specimen is uncleaned.
For me, this specimen is more than just another fragment of a meteorite. Behind its discovery lie hours spent in the field, reconnaissance, terrain analysis, and above all a passion for uncovering matter that came to us from the cosmos.
I hope it will reach a collector who will appreciate both its scientific and historical value, as well as the story of its discovery, and will give it proper care.
