Meteorites from the Moon and Mars. The two most desirable meteorites come from the Moon and Mars. The only way to own a piece of the Moon and Mars is to acquire a part of one of the rare meteorites that originated when a very large meteorite impacted their surface ejecting small rocks out into space that eventually made their way to Earth as a meteorite. As you might expect these lunar and Martian meteorites are quite rare. This 12¾ x 6¾" frame contains two approximately 6mmX4mm meteorite sections from a Lunar meteorite Dhofar 461 and a Martian meteorite DAG46. The Lunar meteorite Dhofar 461 was found in the Sahara desert in Oman on April 22, 2001 and the Martian meteorite DAG 476 was found in the Libyan desert in May 1998. Both meteorite sections come with certificates of authenticity with pictures of the entire meteorite. The custom frame is ready for hanging if desired. Estimated Value $350 - 500
