Deep sky wall art – Pacman Nebula, Gebel Kamil and Aletai meteorites

This deep sky wall art pairs an astrophotograph with two genuine meteorite fragments: Gebel Kamil and Aletai. The black frame and its white mount give the piece a gallery-style finish, with the fragments set in a white disc on the photo. It is therefore a one-of-a-kind piece, both decorative and scientific.

What the photo shows

In Cassiopeia, about 9,500 light-years away, the Pacman Nebula (NGC 281) gets its nickname from the video-game shape that its dark dust clouds draw. To go further, our page on the Pacman Nebula also tells you more.

Two genuine fragments: Gebel Kamil and Aletai

Thus, two fragments share the same disc. Gebel Kamil is a very nickel-rich iron meteorite from a small crater in the Egyptian desert. Aletai is an iron meteorite from the Chinese Altai, with a distinctive metallic sheen. Each one also has its own certificate. You can also read our article: Where do meteorites come from?
