Authentic Mars Meteorite Fragment Galaxy Series Necklace (From Martian Meteorite NWA 6963)--18K Rose Gold

$199.95

I bet you never thought you could own a piece of Mars, did you? You can! 

This martian meteorite pendant is made with a sample of genuine mars meteorite dust/fragments, meaning it was once part of the surface of Mars! Mars, the Red Planet, the mysterious world that humanity has looked up to with wonder and amazement for hundreds of years. You are probably surprised to learn that it is even possible to own a piece of the Red Planet. How is this possible, you might ask? Martian meteorites are rocks that originated on Mars but were violently ejected into space due to catastrophic asteroid/comet impact events on the Martian surface. 

Mars' proximity to the asteroid belt means it gets bombarded much more frequently than Earth, and because Mars' gravity is only 38% of Earth's, ejected materials reach escape velocity much easier. Occasionally some of this material crosses paths with Earth and falls as meteorites. This is a very rare event, as only around 124 martian meteorites have ever been discovered, making them among the rarest of meteorites. For more information: Click Here

The martian meteorite fragments we are using come from Northwest Africa 6963, which was discovered in Morocco in 2011, and is confirmed martian shergottite.
