Discovered by a farmer in Namibia, the Hoba meteorite is an extraordinary marvel of nature. Weighing approximately 60 tons, it is the largest known meteorite on Earth. What makes Hoba particularly fascinating is that, despite its immense size, it left no impact crater when it fell to our planet around 80,000 years ago.
This mammoth slab of iron continues to intrigue scientists and visitors, offering a unique glimpse into the cosmos and Earth's ancient history.
Its mysterious presence in Namibia remains a topic of study and wonder, as researchers seek to unravel the secrets of this colossal extraterrestrial visitor.
