Antarctic Search for Meteorites (ANSMET)



An on-going search, sponsored by the Polar Programs Office of the U.S. National Science Foundation, that since 1977 has led to the discovery of more than 7,000 meteorites (about three times the number found outside Antarctica), including the famous ALH 84001.
