| The shop offers a wide range of Lunar and Martian meteorites along with many rare achondrites and chondrites. |
| Based on their texture, stone meteorites are divided into two types, the chondrites and the achondrites. |
| From the crusts of differentiated asteroids and planets come the meteorites we call achondrites. |
| We have a major research program to investigate the thermal histories of lunar rocks, achondritic meteorites, and Martian meteorites. |
| Sources of other specific meteorites remain unproven, although another set of eight achondrites are suspected to have come from Mars. |
| The earth's crust is depleted in iridium and other platinum group elements, while meteorites are enriched in them. |
