Re: [meteorite-list] PBS NOVA Program, Meteor Strike (tonight: 3/27/13)
Mal, Thanks for the post and the heads up. Definitely have to watch it! They put this program together even faster than I thought they would, as back on Feb 15th I posted this ( in part) to the List: This fall will almost certainly be featured in all the future meteorite themed programs. Perhaps NOVA will do a nice episode on it soon. I'm certain that many others felt NOVA would make such a program too, but it is good to see that my prediction from the very first day of the fall came true so quickly, just short of 6 weeks later. Can't wait to see it. Thanks again.

[meteorite-list] Saturn is Like an Antiques Shop, Cassini Suggests
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2013-117 Saturn is Like an Antiques Shop, Cassini Suggests Jet Propulsion Laboratory March 26, 2013 A new analysis of data from NASA's Cassini spacecraft suggests that Saturn's moons and rings are gently worn vintage goods from around the time of our solar system's birth. Though they are tinted on the surface from recent pollution, these bodies date back more than 4 billion years. They are from around the time that the planetary bodies in our neighborhood began to form out of the protoplanetary nebula, the cloud of material still orbiting the sun after its ignition as a star. The paper, led by Gianrico Filacchione, a Cassini participating scientist at Italy's National Institute for Astrophysics, Rome, has just been published online by the Astrophysical Journal. Studying the Saturnian system helps us understand the chemical and physical evolution of our entire solar system, said Filacchione. We know now that understanding this evolution requires not just studying a single moon or ring, but piecing together the relationships intertwining these bodies. Data from Cassini's visual and infrared mapping spectrometer (VIMS) have revealed how water ice and also colors -- which are the signs of non-water and organic materials --are distributed throughout the Saturnian system. The spectrometer's data in the visible part of the light spectrum show that coloring on the rings and moons generally is only skin-deep. Using its infrared range, VIMS also detected abundant water ice - too much to have been deposited by comets or other recent means. So the authors deduce that the water ices must have formed around the time of the birth of the solar system, because Saturn orbits the sun beyond the so-called snow line. Out beyond the snow line, in the outer solar system where Saturn resides, the environment is conducive to preserving water ice, like a deep freezer. Inside the solar system's snow line, the environment is much closer to the sun's warm glow, and ices and other volatiles dissipate more easily. The colored patina on the ring particles and moons roughly corresponds to their location in the Saturn system. For Saturn's inner ring particles and moons, water-ice spray from the geyser moon Enceladus has a whitewashing effect. Farther out, the scientists found that the surfaces of Saturn's moons generally were redder the farther they orbited from Saturn. Phoebe, one of Saturn's outer moons and an object thought to originate in the far-off Kuiper Belt, seems to be shedding reddish dust that eventually rouges the surface of nearby moons, such as Hyperion and Iapetus. A rain of meteoroids from outside the system appears to have turned some parts of the main ring system - notably the part of the main rings known as the B ring -- a subtle reddish hue. Scientists think the reddish color could be oxidized iron -- rust -- or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which could be progenitors of more complex organic molecules. One of the big surprises from this research was the similar reddish coloring of the potato-shaped moon Prometheus and nearby ring particles. Other moons in the area were more whitish. The similar reddish tint suggests that Prometheus is constructed from material in Saturn's rings, said co-author Bonnie Buratti, a VIMS team member based at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. Scientists had been wondering whether ring particles could have stuck together to form moons -- since the dominant theory was that the rings basically came from satellites being broken up. The coloring gives us some solid proof that it can work the other way around, too. Observing the rings and moons with Cassini gives us an amazing bird's-eye view of the intricate processes at work in the Saturn system, and perhaps in the evolution of planetary systems as well, said Linda Spilker, Cassini project scientist, based at JPL. What an object looks like and how it evolves depends a lot on location, location, location. The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. The visual and infrared mapping spectrometer team is based at the University of Arizona, Tucson.

[meteorite-list] House-AD: The Meteorite House sells World's Most Beautiful Iron Meteorite
Hello World, in its unbearable modesty The Meteorite House pushes on the Olympus its throne closer to Hephaestus' in giving you today the great privilege to have access to the last fullslices of the fractal iron NWA 7335. NWA 7335 IS the most beautiful and most spectacular iron among the 1074 iron meteorites, the Bulletin lists. Full stop. Happy those, who own already their slice and will freely share with you their amazement arising, whenever they take a look on their specimen, cause that, what they observe, is truly unbelievable!: The kamacite, forming the Widmanstätter pattern has not the usual shape of straight bars and bands, but you'll find it in form of twisted bundles, almost plaited like pigtails!! !! The baffled geometrician will find to his wondrousness intersection angles of 60° and even 70°! The size of the pigtail pattern is about that of a medium octahedrite, nevertheless - it's getting even better: The plessite fields between the pattern, they aren't empty, but full of myriads of tiny spindles, which in some fields repeat the Widmanstaetter pattern on a small, down to microscopic scale, while in other fields they form own geometrical patterns!! Absolutely unique and aesthetically a true bomb. Mysterious and enigmatic must be its genesis. Enjoy: http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_0_05.JPG http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_0_01.JPG http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_0_02.JPG http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_0_03.JPG http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_0_04.JPG Find the classification here, of course the type is unique too: An ungrouped, plessitic Octahedrite. http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/metbull.php?code=55763 It is evident and easy to foresee, that without an NWA 7335 any serious iron meteorite collection will remain incomplete forever. That iron represents on the iron meteorite sector the quintessence of more than 30 years of cold and hot desert hunting and you'll agree that it is apt, to crown and to complete a long and rich life of an iron meteorite specialist. (No worries, also the next 30 years we will be there for you). In those times of Mercurian prices, of pecuniary valuations of watery Martians, of groundshaking LL5s or Indian-Katolic H5s crazinesses, you'll see us to be much too old-fashioned in filling out the price tags. Our failure shall be your luck. Hereso are the last fullslices. More material isn't left from the 4.9kg that meteorite originally had. (And one of the slices we need still for the most prominent iron pope, so better give us also an alternative choice). All slices are ennobled on one side by the incredibly contrast-rich Meteorite House Finish (MHF), the other side is rough from the saw (ultrahard it is, that iron). Only the smallest slice has MHF on both sides. 29.05g (both sides MHF prepared) 726$ 562€ http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_29_05_g_01.JPG http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_29_05_g_02.JPG 147g1896$ 1470€ http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_147_g_01.JPG http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_147_g_02.JPG 177g2283$1770€ http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_177_g_01.JPG 212g2734$2120€ http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA7335_212_g_01.JPG NWA 7335! - Who, that hath no eyes to see, no heart to feel, shall never be called a serious collector again! And whoever dares to call this iron nice, won't get any of it. Now good luck to all! Obeisances homages, also those of North Korean style, we'll accept this time only publically here on the list, for people not erroneously thinking, that NWA 7335 would be only an insiders' tip and because of the wave of influenza raging in Germany, the Meteorite House is currently not able, to inflate NWA 7335 to that living legend, it already is and ever will be.

Re: [meteorite-list] PBS NOVA Program, Meteor Strike (tonight: 3/27/13)
Hi Shawn, Robert, Martin, and all -- I may be totally wrong, but my understanding is this is a different program since it is a production of WGBH Boston producers of PBS programming such as NOVA, and since they mention they sent their NOVA crews to Russia shortly after the fall to document the event from all aspects. WGBH is PBS’s single largest producer of Web and TV content -- they produce programming such as NOVA,**Frontline, etc. so i think this is an entirely new and separate entity from the one Martin has pointed out. ...but maybe they used portions of the programing Martin is pointing out, or there was a collaboration, or PBS/ETV here in the US is in partnership with Channel 4 (UK), or whatever. It's hard keeping up with global corporate entities and their intermingling anymore. Our once seemingly large planet is getting very small very quickly in many ways these days. So many corporations have ties with each other world wide who knows what is what anymore. I tried to do a little investigating to see if there was a tie in to what Martin pointed out and see if Channel 4 and PBS (and WGBH Boston) had connections, but I couldn't determine anything one way or the other with the little time I had to investigate. Maybe one of our members can clear this up for all of us? Well, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong! :-) Mal On 3/27/2013 12:20 PM, Shawn Alan wrote: Thats kool, I wonder if the Meteorite Strike documentary will be the same as this one posted by Martianhttp://www.channel4.com/programmes/meteor-strike-fireball-from-space ?

The website puts a bug into your system and it's hard to get rid of. I wrote to Rob but the response was an email with the same link. Maybe someone can call him and let him know what's going on.
