A friend of mine lives in Kiowa County, Kansas. Meteorite hunters often visit his farm. The Pratt Tribune (newspaper) carried this headline on March 30, 2021: "A 320-pound rock found in rural Kansas in 2006 came from outer space. It just sold for $156,250."
I'm not a complete idiot -- a few parts are missing!

Yep! Those things are one of the few things that cost more than the minuscule grams of ink in those OEM carts! :laughhard: Hopefully, she can find a good intergalactic lawyer and sue the owners of that rock!! :Thinking: :thumbup:

My friend collects mining royalties from people who find meteorite fragments on his farm.
