🌕 This is the moon, or rather, it’s a lunar feldspathic breccia meteorite specimen. Sliced from a larger meteorite found in the northwestern Saharan desert in 2017, this piece of our moon fell to Earth after an impact event sometime in our past, and now I have it in my hand. F-ing crazy.

This is a close-up image of a fragment of lunar feldspathic breccia meteorite, placed inside a clear plastic container. The meteorite piece has a rough, irregular shape with a dark gray base and lighter gray and white inclusions scattered throughout, characteristic of breccia—rock made from broken fragments cemented together. The container provides a clear view of the texture and pattern of the specimen.
