Austria: Mail from a different World

In a "world premiere" Austrian Post issued this stamp minisheet in 2006 which contains 0.03 grams of star dust. The powder comes from a 19-kilogram meteorite found in Morocco that was crushed through a special process and put on these stamps by hand. 600.000 pieces of this sheet were put into circulation.
