The pendant on this necklace is a real meteorite recovered in Africa, and impacted approx. 8-10 million years ago. This allows the owner to have a real piece of space rock around their neck! Meteors are an assortment, and will vary in shape and size. Meteorites are pieces of solid debris that originate somewhere in outer space but travel on a collision course with Earth. While they may commonly be referred to as meteors, this is incorrect. Meteors are anything that enters our atmosphere but burns up before impacting the planet. Meteorites are any of the debris that survive until impact. They are typically made of incredibly dense rock and metals, with the largest intact specimen weighing 60 tonnes but only reaching 9 feet in length.
Meteor is typically approx. 1" long.
