Iron meteorite wall art – Muonionalusta and Andromeda Galaxy

This iron meteorite wall art pairs an astrophotograph of the Andromeda Galaxy with a genuine fragment of Muonionalusta. The deep black box frame adds depth: the photo and the meteorite seem to float behind the glass, like in a museum display case. It is therefore a one-of-a-kind piece, both decorative and scientific.

What the photo shows

At 2.5 million light-years, the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is the Milky Way’s big neighbour and the most distant object visible to the naked eye; the two galaxies are expected to merge in a few billion years. To go further, our page on the Andromeda Galaxy also tells you more.

A genuine fragment of the Muonionalusta meteorite

Muonionalusta is an iron meteorite found in 1906 in Swedish Lapland, near the Arctic Circle. It fell about a million years ago and is famous for its Widmanstätten pattern, the crystal network that appears on its polished slices. You can also read our article: What is a meteorite?
