History: Forged in the core of an asteroid more than 4 billion years ago, the Aletai meteorite fell centuries ago in the desert of northwestern China. Its metallic composition and internal structure reveal an extremely slow cooling process in deep space. This meteorite contains the characteristic Widmanstätten pattern, a natural interlacing of iron and nickel crystals that can only form when cooling less than one degree per million years. Impossible to reproduce artificially, this pattern is indisputable proof of its extraterrestrial origin.
