BBC News: Space collection put up for sale

The UK's largest private collection of space artefacts, which includes meteorites and rocks from the Moon and Mars, is being put up for auction.

More than 170 items, collected by self-proclaimed meteorite chaser Robert Elliott, are expected to fetch more than £500,000.

Among the most notable pieces is the remaining part of the Hambleton meteorite, found in Yorkshire in 2005.

The Lyon and Turnbull auction will take place in Edinburgh on 18 August.
