DESCRIPTION
The lunar meteorite NWA 11788 is one of the rarest kinds of space rocks. The majority of the stones are caught by the gravitational field of the Earth or the Sun after being blasted off the lunar surface by asteroidal impacts. They circle the Earth or Sun for a considerable amount of time before being drawn in by Earth's gravity and falling like other meteorites.
