Please keep politics to a minimum. When science is the focus, intersection with politics may be tolerated as long as the discussion is constructive and science remains the focus.

I'm glad the scientific community is once again continuing cooperation even through political bullshit.

When the moon and Mars are hit by meteorites, sometimes they eject material out of their orbits. Very occasionally, that material hits the Earth's atmosphere and becomes a meteorite in turn. And sometimes, we find those meteorites.

You can buy fragments of those meteors.

I have tiny tiny pieces of meteorites from the moon and from Mars. They give me a sad, solitary feeling for the place of humans in this vast universe, and a sense of awe for being able to look at some portion of that vastness, and a sense of wonder for what I see.
