Meteorites are the most remarkable things on Earth and the only items people may own that are not from this planet. Most meteorites originated in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, while others may have traveled from even greater distances. Some meteorites are believed to contain materials that pre-date our solar system, making them the oldest items any human has ever touched. All meteorites in our online catalog are guaranteed to be authentic and as described.
Every Aerolite specimen comes with a specimen identification card; Certificates of Authenticity are available upon request.
