This original museum comprises a single hall devoted to meteoric particles. Worthy of mentioning is the 37-ton meteor known as "Chaco" that stands guarded, together with many others, in the surrounding area since the museum lacks a building of its own. Studies carried out on the meteors have concluded that the hundreds of pieces found in the area are apparently fragments of a single meteor that scattered over the Chaco plains 5,800 years ago. The meteor named "Chaco" is one of the most important in the world on account of its size and weight.
