[Rockhounds] Rare meteorites from the moon, Mars, and more, to go under the hammer

[Kreigh Tomaszewski]

For those looking for an accessory a little out of this world, an auction
house has an extraordinary offering: meteorites.
In an online sale, Christie's auction house is presenting a portfolio of
celestial objects, including specimens hailing from the moon and Mars, as
well as aesthetic iron meteorites and rocks containing gemstones.
Meteorites are small natural objects from space that survive their passage
through Earth's atmosphere and land on the surface -- and while some of the
specimens are housed in museums, 75 of them are being sold this month as
part of "Deep Impact: Martian, Lunar and Other Rare Meteorites" auction.
