Geoff and Steve are looking for a meteorite that crash landed in what is now modern day Poland nearly 5,000 years ago. The impact would have been massive and could have blocked out the sun for several days.
Steve finds a really, really, really cool iron meteorite with a unique design. When meteorites pass through our atmosphere, the intense heat can cause morphing and pitting, which is likely what created Steve's new favorite here.
To cover more ground, the guys drag a rake covered in magnets behind a truck in hopes of dredging up a few finds. See why Geoff joked, "we're taking heavy damage, captain!"
The guys use their new custom motorcycle, courtesy of Paul Senior from Orange County Choppers, to unearth a massive rock lodged in the earth for thousands of years.
The guys talk about the extreme weather they faced at different hunt locations in season two. Plus, find out how Steve splattered Geoff's face with mud.
Geoffrey and Steve, the Meteorite Men, use astronomy, algebra, geometry, geology, and physics to do their jobs: running around the globe finding rocks that have fallen from outer space!
