Moon Rock // Actual Piece Of Rock From The Moon
Product Description
Lunar gabbro meteorite NWA 4483, an actual piece of rock from the surface of the moon! The moon is regularly struck by meteorites which eject lunar rocks into space. With the right trajectory, some of this material gets caught by earth's gravitational pull and falls as a meteorite down to earth. This particular lunar meteorite was first discovered in July 2006 in Algeria. It is currently being studied further at the University of Washington, Department of Earth and Space Sciences, Seattle, WA.
