Step inside the world of meteorite hunting as Steve Arnold and Jeff Nock journey to Sweden's Arctic Circle, unearthing space rocks worth thousands. Can they beat the odds?
Join modern-day treasure hunters Steve and Jeff as they brave frozen forests, unpredictable weather, and daunting terrain in their quest to find the legendary Muonionalusta meteorites. With lost equipment, secretive local experts, and centuries-old glacial mysteries, every dig is an adventure filled with risk and reward. Discover how these rare iron meteorites traveled through ice ages, learn about the science behind their unique Widmanstätten patterns, and see just what it takes to extract these extraterrestrial treasures from beneath boulders and bogs.
Alongside Swedish meteorite hunter Thomas Oosterberg and his family, our hosts navigate the challenges of remote Norbotten, encounter the rich traditions of the Sami people, and rely on both technology and intuition to locate meteorites buried for thousands of years. From digging through swampy forests to the moment of discovery, this video reveals the detective work, camaraderie, and sheer determination behind every find. By the end, the team amasses a haul of over 175 pounds of meteorites, valued at up to $56,000, and gains deeper insights into both our planet and the cosmos.
