陨石也称“陨星”，是地球以外脱离原有运行轨道的宇宙流星或尘碎块飞快散落到地球或其它行星表面的未燃尽的石质、铁质或是石铁混合的物质。对于人类而言，要从其它星球取回样品，陨石无疑最廉价，无需动用宇宙飞船，无需耗巨资！据阿波罗宇宙飞船登月记载，曾经耗资亿万巨资，才仅仅从月球正面（或称月球的近边）采集了300多公斤月球表面的样品.

Meteorites, also known as "meteorites", are unburned rocks, iron or a mixture of rocks and iron that are scattered rapidly on the surface of the Earth or other planets by cosmic meteors or dust debris from the original orbit outside the Earth. For humans, to retrieve samples from other planets, meteorites are undoubtedly the cheapest, no need to use spacecraft, no need to spend huge amounts of money! According to Apollo spacecraft landing on the moon, it used to cost billions of dollars to collect more than 300 kilograms of lunar surface samples only from the front of the moon (or near the moon).

玻璃陨石，被称为“天外来石”，稀有宝贵，天然有人喜好保藏。近几年，国内逐渐兴起了一股玻璃陨石保藏热潮。三四年间，不只玻璃陨石的报价飙升，国内玻璃陨石保藏商场也日渐成形。四五年前，玻璃陨石所带来的经济价值还不为人所熟知。由于玻璃陨石的形成比较复杂，存世极为罕见稀少，物以稀为贵，它的价值高于其他陨石。 国际上对陨石的定价可是最少2000到8000美金＄2013年乌鲁木齐有一块拳头大小的陨石，还是女性拳头大小的陨石标价就是8000万，没看错，就是一块黑不溜揪的陨石，8000万。而广西钟山的那块530千克的铁陨石更是拍出了天价2.2亿！高等级的铁陨石价格一般在黄金的几十倍到几百倍！稀有的甚至好大十万美金一克！当然，鉴于陨石的特殊性，价格都只是参考而已！

Glass meteorites, known as "extraterrestrial rocks", are rare and precious. Natural people like to preserve them. In recent years, there has been an upsurge of glass meteorite preservation in China. In the past three or four years, not only the price of glass meteorite has soared, but also the domestic glass meteorite preservation market has gradually taken shape. Four or five years ago, the economic value of glass meteorites was not well known. Because the formation of glass meteorites is complex, they are rare and rare in existence. The value of glass meteorites is higher than that of other meteorites. The international price for meteorites is at least $2,000 to $8,000. There is a fist-sized meteorite in Urumqi in 2013, or a fist-sized meteorite in women is priced at $80 million. You can see it correctly, it is a black clinging meteorite, 80 million. And the 530 kg iron meteorite in Zhongshan, Guangxi, has a sky-high price of 220 million yuan! The price of high-grade iron meteorites is usually tens to hundreds of times that of gold. Rare or even a hundred thousand dollars a gram! Of course, in view of the particularity of meteorites, the price is only a reference!
