Rare Lunar Meteorite Material!

The Moon has captured the human eye for millennia. It hangs in the night sky as Earth's singular and beautiful natural satellite. Our moon is uncommonly large proportional to our planet, a fact owed to its likely origin as an asteroid. When we look up to it, we can see the light "terra" and dark "mare," both sections of igneous rock.

This specimen is a hand-crafted resin "moon" containing lunar dust material. It comes from the lunar meteorite NWA 5000 and has been crafted to replicate the shape of our nighttime neighbor. The material's geologic composition has been determined to have come from the lighter highlands of the Moon.
