(CNN) — Scientists say a knife buried with King Tut came from outer space.

It’s made from meteorite.

Researches used high tech X-rays and testing to determine the blade’s make-up matches other meteorites.

The discovery confirms the long-held theory that the ancient Egyptian Pharaoh’s knife did not come from our planet.
