I made my first visit to the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington, DC, on April 28, 2016.

Seeing a broken chunk of ALH 84001 right in front of me made my heart skip, as did a few other meteorites. I will share some of the better pictures on MPOD of various specimens over time.

Enjoy the famous Martian rock with signs of "life" once/still inside.

weight is 176 grams, and it is estimated to be about 40x30 mm in size. hope that helps. (It was very difficult to photograph in the plastic cube-box behind a pane of display glass)
