Arthur Ross Hall of Meteorites

The hall tells the story of what meteorites are and what they tell us about the solar system (along the walls), it explains the classification and history of meteorites (in the octagonal cases), and describes how Robert Peary brought back the three major Cape York meteorites from Greenland.
