A massive chunk of Mars—yes, the actual planet—is hitting the auction block at Sotheby’s in New York. It’s being billed as the biggest Martian meteorite ever discovered on Earth, and it’s part of a lineup of rare space rocks up for grabs. If you’ve ever wanted to own a piece of another world, now’s your chance (assuming you’ve got deep pockets).

Editor’s Note: Meteorites are more than just cosmic curiosities—they’re time capsules from the solar system’s past. This auction highlights how space science intersects with high-end collectibles, making planetary fragments accessible (well, to the ultra-wealthy, at least). It’s also a reminder that bits of Mars are just lying around on Earth, waiting to tell their stories.
