Moon Rocks Up Close – What Does Our Moon Really Look Like? Find out through Lunar Meteorites!

In this episode, Topher and the crew dive into the fascinating and diverse world of lunar meteorites! All Lunar - All night! Come check out NWA 17679, NWA 17502, Oued el Hamim 001, Tisserlitine 001, NWA 17509, NWA 14577, NWA 5000, Ghadamis 004 and more! LET US KNOW WHICH ONE IS YOUR FAVORITE IN THE COMMENTS. :) Topher kicks things off with a slice he thinks looks like an animal, sparking a fun debate before moving on to highlight the beauty and diversity of lunar specimens. Viewers will see everything from dark feldspathic breccias to aqueously altered material from Libya, plus fragmental breccias and a rare troctolite that may soon be officially recognized in the Meteoritical Bulletin. Patreon Supporter Dr. Chris shares a fragmental breccia with a texture reminiscent of a Jackson Pollock painting, while Patreon Supporter Chris N.—one of the newer members of the Knowledge Bolide Crew—presents a 3-gram troctolitic melt breccia containing olivine and plagioclase, materials similar to Apollo mission samples. This is Chris N.’s first time presenting a meteorite during a recorded Show & Tell, making it a special debut. The group examines striking features like army-green hues, possible triple junctions, and the rare and historic NWA 5000. Patreon Supporter Chris M. joins the discussion, while Patreon Supporter Anthony—also presenting in a recorded Show & Tell for the first time—shares a beautiful earth-toned lunar meteorite that Chris M. compares to Laâyoune 002. Dave P. showcases a stunning lunar anorthosite (Gadamis 004) believed to be similar to Apollo 16 material, and the crew discusses UV light’s potential to reveal fluorescent reactions in lunar minerals. Throughout, Topher reflects on the awe of holding a piece of the Moon and the value of keeping an open mind about the many ways lunar meteorites can appear. Most of the lunars Topher presented will be added to our online inventory soon, and if you mention this YouTube video when purchasing, we’ll give you a special discount off our direct online price.
