The Meteorite Men -- Geoffrey Notkin and Steve Arnold -- head "Downunder" to the mighty Australian Outback on the most ambitious expedition of their careers. On the far side of the world, they cross the Nullarbor Plain by - a stark, magnificent limestone plateau that is one of the most desolate locations on Earth - by road to reach the remote Mundrabilla strewnfield. The MM team up with Australian meteorite specialist Dr. Andy Tomkins and discover that their campsite is right in the middle of the fall zone. With limited time and an enormous area to cover, the guys use every trick they know to find examples of the strange and beautiful Mundrabilla iron.

TRIVIA
The Nullarboor Plain is home to multiple species of venomous snakes, deep and shear-sided sink holes, and many other hazards. The team was camped so far from civilization they were advised that -- in case of emergency -- even a "flying bush doctor" would likely not arrive in time. As a result, the crew included a field medic plus an Australian Outback survival expert. The doctor was only needed to treat minor injuries, but the extensive knowledge (and good humor) of the team's Outback expert were invluable on a daily basis.
