You're in the market for a space stone, but you don't know where to begin? If you're looking for space wisdom and knowledge, you're on the right path. You're about to learn some simple astrology basics that will push you ahead in the galaxy game.
There are millions of stars out there and millions of astronomical terms to describe outer space. But, you want to know how it all works using simple terms. Get your easy answers here.
An Asteroid is a big rock that floats in space and orbits the sun. Most Asteroids are located in the Asteroid belt, between Mars and Jupiter. Asteroids have been part of our solar system for a very long time.
Can I buy an Asteroid? No. It is too big and too far away in outer space. Humans don't own them yet.
Comets are similar to Asteroids except they travel farther away from the sun on an elliptical orbit. When they move farther from the sun, they gather ice and are observed to have an icy tail. Like Asteroids, they are very old.
Can I buy a Comet? No. It is too big and too far away in outer space- even further than an Asteroid. Humans don't own comets yet.
Sometimes Asteroids or Comets crash into each other and small pieces break off. These smaller rocks flying around in space are called Meteoroids.
Can I buy a Meteoroid? No. Humans have yet to put sale stickers on moving space boulders. Like Asteroids and Comets, they are too far away in outer space to own.
When a Meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere, it begins to burn. This burning light, which is also called a Shooting Star, is a Meteor. A Meteor is a light phenomenon and not a solid substance.
Can I buy a Meteor? No. A Meteor is a light and a burning phenomenon, so you'd essentially be buying smoke.
Meteor pieces that are not burned become Meteorites. A Meteor burns off in the Earth's atmosphere, but some pieces may survive and land on Earth. These pieces that made it to the Earth's surface without vaporizing are called Meteorites.
Can I buy a Meteorite? Yes, yes, and yes! Meteorites have landed on Earth in various countries throughout our history. They have been around way before the dinosaurs. Some Meteorites are billions of years old and some are just a few days old. We earthlings find Meteorites and place them for sale or collect them. It is an amazing experience to hold a Meteorite and know you are touching a piece of space and history.
You can find real Meteorites for sale all around the world. Just be careful because the planet is full of fake knock-offs and full of humans trying to make a quick buck.

We know that you're not interested in the knock-offs nor the factory-made synthetics that are saturating the market today.
