List of Martian meteorites

January 06, 2023

For list of rocks on Mars, see List of rocks on Mars.

This is a list of Martian meteorites i.e. meteorites that have been identified as having originated from Mars.

As of September 2020, 277 meteorites had been classified as Martian, less than half a percent of the 72,000 meteorites that have been classified.[1] On 17 October 2013, NASA reported, based on analysis of argon in the Martian atmosphere by the Mars Curiosity rover, that certain meteorites found on Earth thought to be from Mars, were actually from Mars.[2] The list does not include meteorites found on Mars by the various rovers.
