[meteorite-list] Chelyabinsk Meteorite Falling in Dark Flight
Hi List, On March 24, Martin Goff posted on FB a link to a video that shows some different footage of the Chelyabinsk event. It's entirely in Russian and over 12 minutes long but it's worth a look. I noticed at minute 10:30 of the video there is a clip of a meteor(ite) falling in dark flight. It's only about 3 seconds of video but there appears to be a black rock tumbling straight down from the sky. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgZuqm7893A Chelyabinsk continues to amaze.

Dear list members, the moving dark spot in the footage does definitely not show the falling meteorite because the direction does not fit to the location of the impact hole in the ice of the lake. It's probably a bird. Graham, I've analysed the footage and could not see the mass fall. Martin Gesendet: Freitag, 04.

[meteorite-list] Gaggle of Potential Dwarf Planets Found by Dark Energy Camera
http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn25351-gaggle-of-dwarf-planets-found-by-dark-energy-camera.html Gaggle of dwarf planets found by dark energy camera by Aviva Rutkin New Scientist 02 April 2014 Our solar system just got a little more crowded, thanks to discoveries from a huge digital camera designed to study dark energy. Last week astronomers reported the discovery of 2012 VP113 - nicknamed Joe Biden after the vice president, or VP, of the US. This potential dwarf planet was spotted on the outer fringes of the solar system, in a region called the inner Oort cloud. Days later, the same team reported two more potential dwarfs, known as 2013 FY27 and 2013 FZ27. Both of these objects are in the Kuiper belt, a grouping of relatively small bodies beyond the orbit of Neptune that is also home to Pluto and three other known dwarf planets. Astronomers suspect the Kuiper belt is littered with dwarfs, but many either reflect too little light or are too distant to have been visible in previous sky surveys. FZ27 sits 50 astronomical units away from the sun, on the far edge of the Kuiper belt (1 AU is Earth's distance from the sun). At about 600 kilometres wide, the object is probably massive enough for it to have become nearly round under its own gravity - one of the criteria for being classified as a dwarf planet. The other recently discovered object, FY27, is probably about 1000 kilometres across and was found roughly 80 AU from the sun. Dark eye The fresh haul of discoveries is no coincidence. All three objects were found in images from the Dark Energy Camera on the Blanco telescope in Chile, which took its first images in 2012. Boasting 570 megapixels, this camera was designed to collect the faint light from millions of very distant galaxies in the hunt for clues to the nature of dark energy, the mysterious force that is causing the universe to expand at an accelerating rate. In the process, the camera collects hundreds of gigabytes of data, which astronomers can sift through to find far-flung bodies in our solar system that until now have been invisible. That's why we're finding a lot of these objects, even though they're faint, says co-discoverer Scott Sheppard at the Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington DC. We expect to have many more finds in the future. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] LADEE Satellite to Continue Gathering Data Up to Planned Lunar Impact
April 3, 2014 NASA Satellite to Continue Gathering Data Up to Planned Lunar Impact NASA's Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE) spacecraft is gradually lowering its orbital altitude to continue making science observations prior to its planned impact on the moon's surface on or before April 21. Ground controllers at NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif., are maneuvering the spacecraft to fly approximately 1 to 2 miles (2 to 3 kilometers) above the lunar surface to gather science measurements at the lowest altitude possible. A final maneuver will ensure LADEE's trajectory will impact the far side of the moon, which is not in view of Earth or near any previous lunar mission landings. Ground controllers have little room for error with LADEE's navigation system, and at these low orbital altitudes, a small error could mean the difference between continuing to orbit above the lunar surface and impacting it. Because of this, the team does not intend to target a specific impact location on the moon's surface. The moon's gravity field is so lumpy, and the terrain is so highly variable with crater ridges and valleys that frequent maneuvers are required or the LADEE spacecraft will impact the moon's surface, said Butler Hine, LADEE project manager at Ames. Even if we perform all maneuvers perfectly, there's still a chance LADEE could impact the moon sometime before April 21, which is when we expect LADEE's orbit to naturally decay after using all the fuel onboard. Until mid-April, ground controllers will continue to fire the LADEE altitude control thrusters once a week to keep the observatory in its target orbit. On April 11, LADEE will perform its final orbital maintenance maneuver before the total lunar eclipse on April 15, when Earth's shadow passes over the Moon. This eclipse, which will last approximately four hours, exposes the spacecraft to conditions at the limits of what it was designed to withstand. If LADEE survives the eclipse, we will have nearly a week of additional science at low altitudes before impact, said Rick Elphic, LADEE project scientist at Ames. For a short mission like LADEE, even a few days count for a lot - this is a very exciting time in the mission. After the eclipse, ground controllers will determine how well the spacecraft is functioning. If it is healthy, LADEE will continue to acquire and transmit science data, as longs as its altitude and contact with ground controllers allow. We're very eager to see how LADEE handles the prolonged exposure to the intense cold of this eclipse, and we've used flight data to predict that most of the spacecraft should be fine, said Hine. However, the eclipse will really put the spacecraft design through an extreme test, especially the propulsion system. Launched in September 2013, from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility on Wallops Island, Va., the vending-machine size spacecraft has been orbiting the moon since Oct. 6. On Nov. 10, LADEE began gathering science data, and on Nov. 20, the spacecraft entered its science orbit around the moon's equator. LADEE has been in extended mission operations following a highly successful 100-day primary science phase. Because the LADEE team has flawlessly performed every maintenance maneuver, they've been able to keep the spacecraft flying in its proper orbit and have enabled this amazing mission extension and science to continue up until the very end, said Joan Salute, LADEE program executive at NASA Headquarters in Washington. LADEE's three science payload instruments have been working to unravel the mysteries of the moon's atmosphere, acquiring more than 700,000 measurements. In its previous orbit, LADEE's closest approach to the lunar surface was between 12.5 and 31 miles (20 and 50 kilometers), and its farthest was between 47 and 93 miles (75 and 150 kilometers) - a unique position that allows the spacecraft to frequently pass from lunar day to lunar night every two hours. This vantage provides data on the full range of changes and processes occurring within the moon's tenuous atmosphere. Scientists hope this data will help answer a long-standing question: Was lunar dust, electrically charged by sunlight, responsible for the pre-sunrise glow detected during several Apollo missions above the lunar horizon? LADEE also is gathering detailed information about the structure and composition of the thin lunar atmosphere. A thorough understanding of these characteristics of our nearest celestial neighbor will help researchers understand other bodies in the solar system, such as large asteroids, Mercury, and the moons of outer planets. NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington funds the LADEE mission. Ames manages the overall mission and serves as a base for mission operations and real-time control of the probe.

[meteorite-list] B612 Press Conference on Protecting Earth from Asteroid Impacts
http://spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=42977 B612 Press Conference on Protecting Earth from Asteroid Impacts B612 Foundation Press Release April 4, 2014 The B612 Foundation will hold a press conference at the Seattle Museum of Flight to release new video of data from a nuclear-test-ban-treaty organization showing multiple atomic-bomb-scale asteroid impacts on Earth since 2001. Date: Tuesday, April 22 (Earth Day 2014) Time: 11:30 am PDT / 2:30 pm EDT / 18:30 UTC Location: Museum of Flight, 9404 East Marginal Way S., Seattle, WA 98108 Live Stream: http://www.b612foundation.org Speakers: * US Shuttle, ISS, and Soyuz Astronaut Dr. Ed Lu, Co-founder CEO, B612 Foundation * US Shuttle Astronaut Tom Jones, President, Association of Space Explorers * Apollo 8 Astronaut Bill Anders * Hosted by Doug King, President, Seattle Museum of Flight In a special Earth Day program on April 22, Seattle's Museum of Flight will host three prominent US astronauts supporting the B612 Foundation for a press conference to unveil a new video showing the surprising number of asteroid impacts on Earth during the last decade, and the even more surprising fact that we can prevent future asteroid impacts. The visualization shows data from the nuclear weapons test warning network, supplied by Peter Brown, Western University of Canada. This network has detected 26 multi-kiloton explosions since 2001, all of which are due to asteroid impacts, explained Dr. Lu, CEO, B612 Foundation. It shows that asteroid impacts are NOT rare -- but actually 3-10 times more common than we previously thought. The fact that none of these asteroid impacts shown in the video was detected in advance, is proof that the only thing preventing a catastrophe from a 'city-killer' sized asteroid is blind luck. The goal of the B612 Sentinel mission is to find and track asteroids decades before they hit Earth, allowing us to easily deflect them. The B612 Foundation is partnered with Ball Aerospace to build the Sentinel Infrared Space Telescope Mission. From a Venus-like orbit around the Sun, Sentinel will be the most capable system for finding and tracking asteroids ever built. During the press conference, Apollo 8 astronaut Bill Anders will unveil a new mural that highlights the importance of the Sentinel mission. His Earthrise photo shows the Earth rising above the crater-strewn surface of the Moon, and will remain on display at the Seattle Museum of Flight. We began Apollo 8 thinking we were going to learn about the Moon, instead, we began a new understanding of our Earth. The Earthrise photo will serve as the backdrop for the morning press conference. Tom Jones, four-time US shuttle astronaut and President of the Association of Space Explorers, will explain the recent UN resolution calling for international cooperation for detection of dangerous asteroids. The press conference is open to all accredited media. Astronauts Ed Lu, Tom Jones, and Bill Anders will also be available for 1-1 interviews and additional photos immediately before and following the press conference. Please schedule with Diane Murphy (di...@b612foundation.org) The video showing the new findings of asteroid impacts will be posted at http://www.b612foundation.org immediately following the press conference.
