About Lunar Meteorites:

Unlike Earth, the Moon has only an extremely tenuous exosphere and lacks the substantial atmospheric protection that shields our planet from most incoming meteoroids. As a result, asteroid impacts occur frequently on the lunar surface. These powerful collisions can eject lunar material into space, and on rare occasions, some of these fragments are propelled into Earth-crossing orbits. If a fragment survives its fiery passage through Earth's atmosphere and reaches the ground, it becomes known as a meteorite.

When a suspected lunar meteorite is recovered—often by experienced meteorite hunters—a sample is submitted for scientific analysis. Using petrographic thin sections, chemical testing, and isotopic studies, Meteoriticists compare the specimen's composition to known lunar materials. Its lunar origin is then confirmed through a combination of mineralogical, chemical, and isotopic signatures that match lunar samples returned to Earth by NASA's Apollo missions. Once classified, these rare extraterrestrial specimens find their way into museums, universities, research collections, and private collections around the world.

The Interstellar Collection, LLC is acknowledged by the IMCA (#3950), the Global Meteorite Association (GMA #042) and the Meteorite Club. We unconditionally guarantee the authenticity of all of our meteorites.

***How do we acquire the dust?***

The dust you are viewing is the byproduct of slicing scientifically certified Lunar meteorites. We sanitize the collection basin under the saw and provide the residual dust to be used for a number of different applications - from art, jewelry, guitar builders and simply for displaying. These make very unique gift ideas!
