Lee Downey carved this life sized skull from a 615 pound meteorite. Scientists say it is part of a planet that orbited between Mars and Jupiter. When that planet broke apart it flew through space for four billion years. A thousand years ago it entered the earth's atmosphere and landed in Namibia's Kalahari Desert. It will be auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles on November 24.
