Description from the seller

Muonionalusta Meteorite. Authentic Specimen

Discovered in 1906 in Norrbotten, Sweden, the Muonionalusta is one of the oldest meteorites ever found on Earth, having traveled through space for over a million years before landing on our planet.

What makes this specimen truly extraordinary is its Widmanstätten pattern: an intricate crystalline structure of interlocking iron and nickel bands that forms only over millions of years of slow cooling in the vacuum of space. Impossible to replicate artificially. It is, quite literally, a piece of the cosmos with its entire history written within.
