The mass of a meteorite is the amount of matter it contains.

Meteorites range considerably in size, so their mass can vary from almost nothing up to huge. The largest known meteorite is about 60,000 kg.

How heavy is a meteorite? Every one is different, of course, but the vast majority of them are fairly small; fist-sized or smaller. They are predominantly dust-sized, but we generally cannot see those. Larger meteors strike the Earth every couple of months, although they generally disintegrate or explode in the atmosphere.
