Witnessed in Morocco in March 1986, nomads heard a sharp whistle as a single 1,215.5-gram stone landed roughly 200 meters from their tent. Fifteen days later, the stone was broken during a wedding ceremony, some of it placed upon the altar, ensuring that today only distributed fragments remain from this singular fall. 
 
Scientifically, Oued el Hadjar is an LL6 ordinary chondrite: low total iron and very low native metal (the hallmark of the LL group) that has been thermally metamorphosed to petrologic type 6, where original chondrules are largely recrystallized.

Bespoke Sky Ventures is proud to choose the B612 Foundation as our chosen philanthropic partner. For more than two decades, B612 has approached the asteroid frontier with a rare combination of scientific rigor, practical imagination, and a profound sense of responsibility. B612 advances the knowledge and tools needed to protect Earth from potentially hazardous asteroid impacts while helping humanity better understand and navigate the solar system. Through its Asteroid Institute and the open-source ADAM platform, B612 is creating the capabilities required to discover asteroids, recover overlooked observations, refine their orbits, evaluate potential threats, and plan future journeys through space; work that has already revealed tens of thousands of high-confidence asteroid candidates hidden within existing astronomical data. Its support of Asteroid Day and the Schweickart Prize ensures that this vision extends beyond laboratories and computer code, strengthening public understanding while inviting a new generation of bright minds to consider the responsibilities that accompany humanity’s expansion into space. This mission is deeply aligned with our own belief that exploring the heavens must never be separated from caring for the world beneath them. At Bespoke Sky Ventures, we see stewardship of the planet as both a privilege and an obligation, and we believe that those who study, present, and preserve material from other worlds should also support the people working to safeguard this one. B612 embodies that principle at its highest level: exceptional minds, open knowledge, long horizons, and the conviction that foresight, wisely applied, can help protect our planet and secure humanity’s future among the stars.
