Mars Rock Mania: Largest Martian Meteorite on Earth Sells for $5.3 Million at NY Auction
A 54-pound Martian meteorite, the largest piece of Mars ever discovered on Earth, has just fetched a jaw-dropping $5.3 million at a Sotheby’s auction in New York. Classified as an olivine-microgabbroic shergottite, this ultra-rare rock was ejected from Mars around5 million years ago and finally landed in the Sahara Desert in 2023. With only around 400 Martian meteorites known to exist, this one has sparked global attention not just for its price, but for its interplanetary journey and significance.
The auction saw fierce bidding battles as collectors raced to own a piece of the Red Planet. But while the sale made headlines, it also raised concerns in the scientific community. Researchers fear the meteorite may now disappear into a private collection, out of reach for scientists and the public. Could a priceless artifact of extraterrestrial history be lost forever? Watch now for stunning visuals, intense auction moments, and a deep dive into why this Mars rock matters for science, space, and history.
