A meteorite discovered in the Lut Desert in south-central Iran in 2013 has been unveiled. The display of the meteorite, a second found on Iranian soil, came 134 years after a first meteorite was discovered in suburban Tehran (April 18, 1881).
The newly-unveiled dense meteorite weighs 17 kg and was discovered during a desert expedition.
