Lucky's Star: The Story of a Meteorite

By Mark Greenwood About · Illustrated by Lucia Mascuillo

On a quiet spring morning, something strange falls from the sky and lands on a small country town. Lucky watches as ‘stars’ rain down on the fields and farms, but just what are these unusual objects? And what will Lucky do with her own special find?

Lucky’s Star explores the fascinating true story of the Murchison meteorite. The pieces of space rock that were discovered in Murchison, Victoria, provided clues about the origins of life on Earth. Fragments from the meteorite contain the oldest material ever found stardust!
