EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the otherworldly beauty of the Nakhla meteorite, a celestial relic that fell in Egypt's desert sands in 1911. Hailing from Mars, this meteorite is a member of the SNC (Shergotty, Nakhla, and Chassigny) group, which are believed to be the oldest known Martian meteorites. The Nakhla meteorite's rugged, metallic surface is a testament to its cosmic journey through space. Its dense, stony composition is a result of its Martian origin, with its rough texture revealing the intricate patterns and structures formed during its formation and subsequent impact with Earth's atmosphere. This studio shot highlights the meteorite's unique characteristics, allowing viewers to appreciate its alien-like appearance up close. The meteorite's dark, rusty hue is a result of its exposure to Earth's atmosphere, which has oxidized its surface over the past century. Originally discovered in the northern part of Africa, the Nakhla meteorite has captivated scientists and the public alike due to its potential to provide insights into the geological history of Mars. This intriguing piece of cosmic debris serves as a reminder of the vast, mysterious universe that lies beyond our planet, and the endless possibilities for discovery that await us among the stars.
