Below are the pics of the space rock sent to me by Final Frontier
mag
a few years back. IIRC, they said it was from Mars. Its a piece

silver metal. If they had said outer space 'rock', I would've

- meteorite.
There you have it, draw your own conclusions.

Editor: Now I don't know which pic is which but here's what I believe is two of the pictures that Derek posted.
Picture of alleged Mars metal with magazine that so generously sent it to Derek for his subscription.
Picture of a pissed off Derek holding the alleged piece Mars metal.
Here's my favorite part, some comic genius produced these.
Hilarious picture
Another hilarious picture
A third great picture
