Here's an interesting article about a meteorite fragment worth $500,000 dollars which is going to be auctioned off.
Buy the Meteorite That Nearly Destroyed Siberia in This Fun Valentine's Day Auction
Valentine's Day is hurtling toward us again like so much extraterrestrial debris — and, to celebrate, the venerable Christie's auction house is selling off a heart-shaped meteorite than rained hell on Siberia several decades ago.
The heart-shaped hunk of space iron (dubbed "The Heart of Space" by Christie’s) is one of 45 meteorites going up for online auction from Feb. 6 to 14. While some lots are expected to sell for as little as $500, the Heart of Space could fetch upward of $500,000, according to a news release from Christie's. _________________ ____________
