'Both Gmail and Yahoo are making some changes for deliverability to their
services starting February 1, 2024. These changes will require that domains
have certain DNS records (SPF, DKIM, and DMARC) in place if they are used

Whether this has anything to do with emails ending up in spam, I do not
know, but thought I'd mention it anyway.

"September 26, 1939: Glanggang (H5-6, Indonesia) – Selakopi (H5,
Indonesia)"

those two locations are only 30 miles apart... on the same day... can they
really be separate falls?

Anne, I cheated and just went to Mike's site for the other two 21st century
coincidental falls -

Dec 09, 2013 - Parauapebes (H4-5 chondrite) : Brazil (Hammer)
Dec 09, 2013 - Mahbas Arraid (LL6 chondrite) : Western Sahara

and

Mar 01, 2009 - Cartersville (L5 chondrite) : Georgia USA (Hammer)
Mar 01, 2009 - Nkayi (L6 chondrite) : Zimbabwe

even the former of those is not watertight as the stones were discovered 9
months after the fall...

There is also Glendale and Benenitra on July 27, 2018 but Glendale is
unofficial.

Yes I'm lazy but actually it might be an idea for an additional filter in

Re: [meteorite-list] hot vs. cold meteorite falls

2021-03-23 Thread Finbarr Connolly via Meteorite-list
One of the eye-witnesses to Barwell, Joseph Grewcock -

https://www.bbc.com/news/av/magazine-35054625

described the meteorite as being 'red-hot'. He originally thought it had
fallen off a lorry, so had no reason to be 'psychologically tricked'. The
number of similar reports connected to other falls, makes me believe you
are correct.

Re: [meteorite-list] Two million-year long meteorite record found in Atacama Desert, Chile

2019-05-25 Thread Finbarr Connolly via Meteorite-list
They say the fall rate remained pretty constant over the last 2 million
years. If meteorites were getting buried, the rate would presumably fall
off in proportion to their increasing age. So it looks like they factored
this scenario into their extrapolation.

Finbarr.

Re: [meteorite-list] Michigan Meteorite

2018-01-20 Thread Finbarr Connolly via Meteorite-list
Greg,

A lot will depend on the weight of the impacting object of course; for
example the main mass of the 1813 Limerick Meteorite weighed 65 pounds and
buried itself two feet into the ground. The meteorite will generally be
travelling at a speed of between 200 and 400 mph when it hits the surface.

Finbarr.

The Easter Essendy stone, part of the Strathmore (Scotland) fall of 1917,
was located when 'the finder was guided to the spot where it fell by the
commotion caused amongst a flock of sheep, which scattered in all
directions when the meteorite fell among them'.

There ewe go!

Re: [meteorite-list] Article : 21st Century Meteorite Falls, Part Two

2016-10-20 Thread finbarr connolly via Meteorite-list
