A loved-up couple created out-of-this-world wedding rings encrusted with fragments of a 4.7 billion-year-old METEORITE they discovered together. When a meteor hurtled to earth over Michigan, USA, in January, Christopher Rogers and Ashley Moritz went hunting for interplanetary material. Ashley, 34, found the 50g space rock hidden in a snowbank on a frozen lake in Hamburg Township where Zukey and Strawberry lakes meet. The couple, of Royal Oak, Michigan, had the rock authenticated and sent to the UK to be sold through upmarket auction house Christie’s.
