One of the most famous meteorite falls in history, Campo del Cielo refers to an ancient impact event that left behind a vast field of iron-nickel meteorites in Argentina's Gran Chaco region. These meteorites originated from an asteroid that formed over 4 billion years ago, long before Earth itself fully took shape. After traveling through space for eons, the asteroid eventually collided with our planet, leaving behind tons of extraterrestrial metal, some of which remain buried beneath the surface to this day.

Unlike typical meteorites, this unique specimen contains a naturally occurring loose piece within its structure. This movement developed due to natural impact stresses, as well as thousands of years of exposure to Earth's environmental conditions. As oxidation and micro-fractures formed within the metal, a section of the meteorite loosened while remaining enclosed, resulting in a kinetic feature. When held, the piece inside can shift, making this meteorite a truly one-of-a-kind interactive cosmic artifacta direct link to the mysteries of deep space.
