00:00This is an amazing Martian meteorite that broke off of the Martian surface.
00:07There was some sort of massive asteroid strike.
00:10And we know there have only been 19 asteroid strikes big enough to eject a piece like this off of the surface of the planet.
00:19You know, most things burn up when they're coming through the Earth's atmosphere.
00:22You know, the spacecrafts, the Apollo astronauts had to have a massive heat shield on the bottom of those spacecrafts.
00:28So it's incredible that it made it through and then that it crashed in the middle of the desert instead of the middle of the ocean in a place where we could find it.
00:40And luckily with meteorites, unlike a lot of the other items I sell, we do have a lot of price indications.
00:48And looking at all the different meteorites that have sold, they generally have a price per gram.
00:53So the estimate of two to four million is actually quite conservative for the price per gram for a Martian meteorite of this type.
