Hoba Meteorite in Namibia

The Hoba Meteorite which is Namibia’s precious jewels in Namibia is located next to the Gondwana town and visited by astronauts and tourists who just want to see a rock that does not belong to the face of the earth. It was first discovered and tested in the year 1920 by a local who had gone hunting and ever since then, the Grootfontein council has tried their level best to protect it and also maintain so that the tourists still get to see it many years from now. It was at first an extremely huge rock but due to the constant erosion and vandalism from the different people it has greatly reduced although it can still be considered to be big but not like before.
