‘STARRY NIGHT SKY’ LUNAR METEORITE
Sahara Desert
45.87 g
12 × 9 cm (not including stand)
Nicknamed the ‘Starry Night Sky’ lunar meteorite, it reveals a dark brecciated interior, indicating that it is composed mainly of rare lunar regolith clasts, which come from the outer layer of the moon’s surface. The plentiful flecks of iron in the breccia are most likely remnants from previous iron meteorite impacts on the moon. These are embedded in a partially melted matrix, which makes the slice look like staring into the Milky Way on a dark night. The composition of the stone indicates that it most likely originated in the Lunar Highlands.
This slice of 45.87 grams was cut from the main mass of the meteorite. Beautifully mounted on an elegant metal stand.
