People from all over the world are in the tiny town of Lotus in El Dorado County looking for something that’s out of this world, but leave it to a stay-at-home mom walking her dog to find a precious meteorite.

“I was lucky, blessed, good karma,” Brenda said. “It was sitting there at my toes like an Easter egg.”
