On the Trail of the Great Canadian Meteorites
Canada‘s National Meteorite Collection is currently housed at the NHC, a natural history Research and Collections site. Stored at the site are many of the unique meteorites that have been found in Canada. The meteorites are stored in a humidity and environmentally controlled area of the complex. I was given a unique opportunity to view this collection with the curator, as it is generally closed to the public.
