Our mission is to create and share knowledge in the field of meteoritics through:
- Formal and informal education on meteorites and what these reveal about the origin and nature of asteroids, planets, and the Solar System
- Curation and lending of our meteorites for students to study
- Research about meteorites, planets, and the Solar System
Want to visit?
We meet weekly from 2 PM to 3:30 PM on Monday at room ROC 1.201. Directions can be found on our contact page. If you would like us to evaluate a rock sample that you suspect is a meteorite, you will need to register an appointment to visit us; please see our Found a Meteorite? page for details. If you would like to visit for other reasons (such as seeing our meteorite collection), no appointment is needed. Simply walk in when we’re open.
