Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Doubting Thomas
Hi, all, This may be a silly question, but wouldn't that size of the crater/impact in Peru be captured as an event on a seismograph? I would suspect there are plenty in this region. I haven't read the articles over the past two days, so apologies if this information has already been announced. Cheers, Pete From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, 22 Sep 2007 11:35:05 -0500 To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Doubting Thomas I have problems with the meteorite theory: 1. Meteorites, as this List knows, come in cold, not hot enough to make the water in the crater boiling, as several witnesses stated. 2. Meteorites usually travel a long distance from where the glowing meteor is first seen. If the locals saw the bolide, chances are good whatever they saw fell a long distance away, not close enough for them to get there soon after it fell. 3. Speaking of rocks, by now, everyone in every little hamlet knows that there are crazy people out there who pay big money for meteorites. If there was a shower of rocks associated with the fall, how come none of the other purported meteorites have been recovered? 4. I await the analysis of a real meteorite specialist, not a geologist, not a vulcanologist, and not media speculation! No reputable scientist from outside Peru has so far investigated the crater or seen the alleged meteorite fragments. 5. The sickness associated with the crater is a likely red herring, and unrelated to a real meteorite. My 2 centavos. Tracy Latimer Tracy, Point one: Meteorites may be cold, but when the several hundred kilograms (or more) of mass comes to a complete stop from a speed of hundreds of KM per hour, most of the kinetic heat of motion is turned into heat. You do the math, but if hitting a hammer on an anvil can make it hot, just think of something thousands of times heavier, and thousands of times more velocity and the result is obvious! Point two: Small meteorites loose their cosmic velocity miles high, and and the rest of their fall is dark. A very large meteor will retain a substantial amount of its cosmic velocity until impact. Why should it not be incandescent up untill the moment of impact?

Re: [meteorite-list] polarizers
In a message dated 9/23/2007 6:56:09 A.M. Mountain Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hi Tom. I just read Your january article about polarizers. But I dont understand how You can see chondruls through surface ? Your photos are incredible, but I can't imagine how You do that without polishing surface to remove polished surface (polished by sand). When I look into stone through one polarizers nothing happend, when I get two then nothing happend, only screen become darker when I rotate it. So how did You do that :) My polirize filters are nice for most of TS, but maybe there are better ? Any suggestions ? Glad you asked! Hi Marcin and list members, If the whole image is getting darker when the polarizers are rotated then they are not positioned correctly. Always remember: One filter between the light source and the sample. One filter between the sample and the microscope objective (or your eye if no microscope is used). This concept applies to both transmitted (pass through) and incident (reflected) light. Only transmitted Xpol produces the vivid colors associated with Xpol examination. In answer to Marcin's question. Those rocks were examined as shown in the first picture with no prep work. The samples were imaged as you see them! The results are so important in examining an uncut sample, I don't understand why every one who collects meteorites does not have a cross polarized light set up. Marcin's other question about what polarizers to use. On my Neophot I use a Glan-Thompson style that produces almost total extinction. These polarizers are expensive and bulky, you don't need those at nearly $500 each (and it's X2). I don't however, like the films. The ones I have tried distort the viewing with an irregular film surface. Particularly avoid the adhesive backed films as they are the worst for distortion, I like glass camera filters. What ever style works fine. Circular is my first pick. These are cheap used almost any where. Even eBay can be a cheap source. Quality glass camera filters to not disrupt the image and the metal frame often allows for rotation. About half the filters I pick up rotate in their holder. Garage sales and thrift stores are my first hunting grounds and I bought tons (translate: a lot!) at $1 or less. Yep $1 was my cut off. Except for a huge 150mm monster I paid $5 for. I haven't found a use for it but I bought it because it was cool. One further note. If you have a rock saw, the class filters cut just fine. I have cut custom sizes to fit inside microscopes and make for a near OEM application. If you are going to my Gallery, please look at the Juvinas Eucrite Xpol thin section micrographs. http://www.meteorite.com/meteorite-gallery/Micro_Visions.htm Jeff Hodges owns the thin section. It was polished to 1/4 micron on both sides. This is a big deal as generally thin sections do not have a very high polish, as it is not necessary to identify minerals and structure. I am using an aus Jena Aplanatic Pancratic Condenser. This allows me to focus the incoming light exactly on the thin section and then focus the objective. The results are stunning. Please take a look and let me know what you think. You will be amazed. Don't just say you have seen plenty of Xpol shots before What makes Tom's so special? LOOK, it will be worth your time.

[meteorite-list] Peru Meteor Curing Diseases
http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s5i24980 Lima Beanea, Peru (IP) - Scientists studying the Peruvian meteor report that the meteor is curing the diseases of all who approach it. They now know exactly why the miracle cures are so effective. The scientists have observed the figure or image of a hooded female on the side of space rock. It turns out that the lady of the rock is none other than Maxine Rashawannawanna who is none other than the Virgin Mary's counter part from the planet Notperk-Oh-ICU812 which revolves around a pair of stars in the Smaller Magellanic Cloud. Locals are converting en masse to Maxine's religion and the local priests are so upset that they have threatened to make an example of a few people by burning them at the stake. This has drawn keen interest from a tribe of Firestone cannibals who inhabit the local jungles. The result of all of this activity has been the creation of a Woodstock-like atmosphere as hippies, new agers, priests, news crews, cannibals, vendors, scientists, medical personnel, hookers, lawyers, onlookers, meteorite collectors, astronomers, musicians, and countless other folks from diverse backgrounds pour into the area. There are folks playing bongos and flutes wherever you turn. In one area clarinetists and accordion players jam incessantly as if under the control of some unseen power. The smell of incense mingles with the smell of roasted animal flesh. Babies cry, women laugh, and men whistle and the mingling of so many discordant sounds and smells creates a feeling of disorientation and euphoria to the thousands of folks who are also suffering from sleep deprivation. There are so many people in the area that already three women have given birth and 16 people have died only to be brought back to life by the powers emitted by the space rock. Wallymart is reportedly sending workers with chisels and hammers to try to obtain pieces of the meteorite so they can sell it back in the states. The workers experience some type of mystical or religious conversion as soon as they get within 100 meters of the rock and not one piece of the rock has been removed. As night falls the rock emits light which is of various colors never seen before on our planet nor in our part of the galaxy. Humming sounds of various frequencies are heard in the area. Some witnesses have told stories about how trees and animals that were formerly injured have now become whole again. Another report circulating among the rock's pilgrims tells of how weapons become useless within the rock's sphere of influence. The rock's sphere of influence is also reported to be growing with time and there is no telling where this will all end. __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

An analysis of fragments of the Peruvian meteorite carried out by the Universidad Mayor de San Andres, La Paz, Bolivia, Faculty of Geological Sciences, by Mario Blanco Cazas, a downloadable .pdf document. It's in Spanish. There are graphs and charts of elemental abundances, and analysis by Xray fluoresence. Here's some samples of the text with pitiful translations: http://fcpn.umsa.bo/fcpn/app?service=external/PublicationDownloadsp=227 La muestra se presenta en estado de polvo y fragmentos pequeños. De modo general el color es gris verdoso de aspecto granular, algunos fragmentos, que alcanzan un tamaño máximo de 0.5 cm,, son de aspecto totalmente metálico. La muestra tiene una susceptibilidad magnética muy alta. The sample presents in a state of dust and small fragments. In a general way the color is a greenish gray of a granular aspect, some fragments, which reach a maximum size of 0.5 cm, have completely the aspect of metal. The sample has a very high magnetic susceptibility. No es compatible con rocas que normalmente se encuentranen la superficie de la Tierra. Estas relaciones podría eventualmente corresponder a materiales que se encontrarían mucho más al interior de la tierra, es decir podría esperarse en materiales del Manto. Por tanto, es posible suponer que la muestra analizada, contenía minerales de tipo ULTRABÁSICO o BASICO. It is not compatible with rocks that normally are on the surface of the Earth. These relations it might correspond possibly to materials that would be much more to the interior of the Earth, that is to say it might be found in materials of Cloak (the Mantle). Therefore, it is possible to suppose that the analyzed sample, it was containing minerals of the type ULTRABASIC or BASIC.

[meteorite-list] CARANCAS METEORITE VIDEO
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nGOz3yy3Fs Shows the crater. Shows the crater fuming at one margin. Shows rooves just covered with many little rocks. Shows the little flat rocks. This one has a really painful sound track, lots of photo manipulation, but one good shot of the little flat rocks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAoizLPfvik Pretty sure the little flat rocks are local stone blasted out of the crater/pit Sterling K.

[meteorite-list] Need a good clear picture of chondrules
Hi all, I'm working on how to identify a stony meteorite part 2 video. It will cover chondrules, thumbprints and exterior rust spots. Anyway, I need a good, clear, close-up picture of chondrules. It should be about 1 mega pixel in size. If someone has one and wouldn't mind allowing me to use it in my video please let me know.
