Meteorites are extraordinary fragments of the cosmos that begin their journey in the far reaches of space, originating from comets, asteroids, and distant planets. For millions of years, they drift through the void before hurtling toward Earth at unimaginable speeds. As they enter our atmosphere, they endure blazing heat and tremendous pressure, glowing like fire as they race toward the ground. Those that survive this fiery descent land as rare and tangible pieces of the universe, offering a direct connection to the stars.

Each meteorite is unique. Iron meteorites are dense and metallic, composed mainly of iron and nickel, often displaying intricate crystalline patterns. Chondrites, the stony variety, contain tiny spherical inclusions called chondrules, remnants of the early solar system. The rarest, achondrites, are stony-iron meteorites with stone fragments or dazzling olivine crystals embedded in a nickel-iron matrix.

Treasured by collectors, astronomers, and science enthusiasts, meteorites are not just stones—they are storytellers, carrying the history of our solar system and the mysteries of the cosmos into our hands.
