You can hold a piece of an asteroid or the moon in your hands.
Randy Sinukoff, our presenter, has been collecting minerals for more than 40 years and enjoys rockhounding, especially with family and friends. As an extension of his interest in science, Randy got into meteorite collecting 15 years ago. He has met many interesting people while collecting minerals and meteorites. Miners and meteorite hunters typically have great stories to share! Randy enjoys learning more about these topics and sharing common interests with others.
