Last year Neatorama's Alex Zavatone happened to find himself near Angola on the African continent.  While driving through Grootfontein, Namibia, he spotted a road sign that simply said "Meteorite."  Later he decided to make a 170 mile pilgrimage through beautiful and wild landscapes to Hoba to see what it was all about.  
You'll have to go to the Neatorama website to see the money shot - but it's worth it!  I've never seen such a well-presented interplanetary visitor.  Read Alex's full tale here.
