Hoba Meteorite (Largest known on Earth)

Here's a few pictures of the Worlds largest known meteorite, the Hoba meteorite. It was named after the farm it was found near in Grootfontein, Namibia.

It measures 8 feet 9 inches long, 3 feet high, and weighs around 60 tons. It's 84% iron, 16% nickel, with traces of cobalt. This makes it the worlds largest naturally occuring pieces of iron.

It fell about 80,000 years ago and was discovered around 1920 by a farmer.
