Re: [meteorite-list] worlds biggest tektite in history
Hello Steve, All, I've hear tell (and seen photos) of a Muong Nong layered tektite in the 40-50kg range in Thailand, but the asking price was around a dollar a gram. They do come big, but they're rarely seen above about a kilo or so.

[meteorite-list] AD : New Exclusive Lunar and Martian Meteorite Displays - Limited Quantity
Hi List! These new meteorite displays feature a genuine piece of the Moon or the planet Mars - small samples of lunar meteorite NWA 4734 and the Martian meteorite NWA 4857. Order now (or very soon) for Christmas delivery! The meteorite specimens are encased in clear acrylic gemjars which are placed inside a handsome display box that has a black pebblegrain finish and a glass viewing window. The Moon or Mars Rock can be removed from the case and handled or examined. The color artwork inside the display has a retro-vintage astronomy theme and it was laser printed for highest quality. This display would make the ideal gift for someone who has everything. This would also make a fine outreach or educational prop and it would look great on display in the office or observatory. I only have a limited supply of these displays. Each one is numbered. Your purchase comes with a data sheet with information about the meteorite. Refer to the photos in the links. The black centimeter cube is shown for scale and is not included. (ignore the website price - Met List members get a 20% discount!) http://www.galactic-stone.com/product/0/MOON-ROCK-Exclusive-Retro-Art-Lunar-Meteorite-Display_1145800.html http://www.galactic-stone.com/product/0/MARS-ROCK-Colorful-Retro-Art-Martian-Meteorite-Display_1151104.html I only have 3 of the Lunar displays and 2 of the Martian displays.

Re: [meteorite-list] worlds biggest tektite in history
For any interested in this topic, Aubrey Whymark has a nice page on large tektites here http://www.tektites.co.uk/largest_tektites.html. You owe it to yourself to have a look at the rest of his site as well. It's very comprehensive.

[meteorite-list] Not OT-- set our journals free!
We've all seen it-- some new paper (on meteorites or not) comes out from a publicly funded entity, paid by US taxpayers, but to read the paper, you must pay an obscene fee (such as $20 to have access to 1 article for 24 hours-- or some similar rate-- from _Science_.)
