Very interesting lecture. Thank you professor.

My lunar meteorite is like the one shown at about 20 mins except the interior matrix is dark. It's probably one of the best looking meteorites ever, and definitely the best looking lunar meteorite by shape.

I have what I believe the first Lunar meteorite found outside of a desert, and better, I believe I seen it arrive, and better again, it's the only time I've seen a meteorite fall straight down. Me and my friend were stargazing when teen-agers and a light appeared and got bigger and brighter and was a flame, and then went out. 30 years later on a walk at our holiday home I think I found it. I've studied it for a decade and it's mostly made of micro glass, and anything you find in lunar regolith can be found from this rock. It is still deteriorating after a decade indoors and I find amazing glass from it. Glass beads with tails, and some must have been spinning as they cooled because the tail has wrapped around. I can show sub mm grains that have been zapped 100s of times and show impacts where the rock has ejected a glass tail after being struck. I believe I may have found a new mineral that is made of microscopic spherules, but form a cube shape. I can find green, blue, red, orange, bicoloured, clear, green, black glass. The one thing that confirms it is the fact I can find agglutinates. The rock is just under 2kg, and is teardrop shaped. If I took a close up to hide the better shape of mine you couldn't choose it from a couple of other NWA meteorites that are described as lunar regolith breccias. People say these rocks are worth money but I enjoy looking at the dust that falls from it, and my friend is no longer with me and no amount of money can buy that moment we were stargazing as kids and I may never see a meteorite drop straight down again, but I will remove a piece for you want for you to test and keep. I will admit that it would look amazing in a museum just because of its shape, but it would have to be the most paid per gram ever for a Lunar meteorite. I plan to sort all the photos of the glass and other things I find and put them together.
