[meteorite-list] New meteorite book
Hello to the List. As some of you know, I'm writing a book about French Meteorites. The title should be Les Météorites françaises - Guide pratique (in english : French meteorites - Practical guide) The good news is that it may be released before Christmas, making it a nice gift for any meteorite collector or scientist. Also it's in French, it might be of interest for any meteorite collector, including english-speaking people. For example, I'm not a german-speaking man and like to get old german documents (like Chladni's articles) about meteorites. What will be included in this 460 pages book ? - beginner's guide (for anyone beginning in meteorites collecting and hunting) - complete and detailed classification - how to recognize a meteorite ? - all french meteorites (finds or falls, including the latest, Plancy-l'Abbaye and Alby-sur-Cheran) with unique pictures never seen before, old documents, old and latest analysis, museum distribution, bibliography, some maps. Unique old documents which may lead to new meteorite finds in France ! - all french meteorwrongs - most of the french observed meteors or observed falls never recovered (with hints to find them maybe !) - french meteorite or pseudo-meteorite craters - glossary - useful websites - complete Jean-Baptiste Biot text about the L'Aigle fall (1803) I think this book will become a classic most of you will want to own in their library or meteorite collection ! Just write me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you want to be contacted when the book is released (possibility to order it on the web). Price should be reasonable.

[meteorite-list] Meteorite Histories
This is a great idea which could help keeping tracks for successive owners. But to keep a certain independance, there could be a website (with login access) where successive owners of a certain piece could register their ownership. CONCEPT - Here's a complete example (fictionous) : 1. A meteorite hunter finds an Allende individual. He wishes to sell it. 2. This meteorite hunter goes on the website, enters its login/password and creates a file (for example with the ID ALLENDE025). This ID will follow the meteorite from owner to another owner. The file is full with size, weight, presentation (individual, slice, fragment...), picture if any, ... 3. I wish to buy the Allende025 meteorite to the owner. I update the file Allende025 by changing the name of the previous owner and by replacing it with my name. Of course, the previous owner name would be kept for tracking. 4. And the same if I buy the meteorite to a 3rd owner... This database could be validated by IMCA. MY PROPOSAL - As a meteorite collector and website creator, I'm able to build such a site. That's a long work but it could be useful for anyone. I could manage this list, with the acceptance of IMCA authority (I'm an IMCA member also). COST OF WEB HOSTING --- The cost of website hosting (ASP server, 200Mb, fast server, 20Gb transfer volume a month, 5 Access databases) is US$1200 a year with domain name. Anyone wishing to be a member should pay for the service or the hosting could be paid by advertising. Let me know what you think of all this !

[meteorite-list] The Zagami Game
Hello to the List, searching for Zagami information on the web, I found this Zagami Game that you can play on a standard chessboard. The story is comic : In 1962, on a quiet October afternoon in the middle of an African cornfield, a 40-pound meteorite tumbled to the earth and planted itself in a two-foot hole in the ground. It landed ten feet away from a farmer, who was busy scaring crows away from his corn and so was not on the lookout for falling meteorites. The papers reported that the pressure wave from the impact knocked him flat on his back. What the papers failed to report was that, immediately after the impact, a tiny Martian lifeform hopped off the smoldering rock and made its way, quietly, toward the dazed farmer. The changes that overtook him during the following weeks and months were slow and subtle to the eye. It was a long while before he, or anyone else, understood what he'd become. Zagami is a game of Martian microbial life for four players; it requires a standard chessboard and an Icehouse set. Each player controls a single-colored colony of microbes, which moves and expands across the small meteorite in search of food. Multicolored stacks begin to form - microbes eating microbes eating microbes. As the game progresses, each colony evolves enzymes which allow it to metabolize other microbes into energy to be used for growing, sporing, attacking, and escaping. Only one colony will survive the long journey from Mars to Earth. Will it be yours?

[meteorite-list] Susceptometer use for meteorites
Hello to the List members, I'm interested in buying a magnetic susceptometer like the one used by Pierre Rochette (CEREGE - CNRS) for his classification of meteorites by measuring the magnetism of meteorites.

In that case, when you scan a stone, you're in most cases sure that it's a meteorite and not a terrestrial stone. I would like to know if some of you already used such an instrument when hunting for meteorites.

[meteorite-list] Tunguska : a UFO struck by a comet...
Here are more information on the Tunguska discoveries. Without proven datas and facts, I let you think what you want of this strange history. (for me it's a fake). Pierre-Marie PELE Meteor-center.COM AFP source - Russian researchers started again the debate on the mysterious cataclysm of Toungouska which has occurred in 1908 in Siberia, affirming to have found on the spot of the catastrophe of the stones supposed to be remains of an extraterrestrial vessel which would have been struck by a comet. June 30, 1908, an enormous flash crossed the sky above Siberia, follow-up of a powerful explosion equivalent to that of a thousand of atomic bombs which devastated taïga on hundreds of kilometers in the basin of the river Podkamennaïa Toungouska (area of Krasnoïarsk). The inhabitants of the Siberian villages felt like an earthquake: men and animals collapsed, hustled by the shock wave, the windows of their izbas broke. Like one did not find remains of meteorite on the spot, the scientists concluded that it was about the explosion of a comet core or an asteroid. Engineer Iouri Lavbine devoted 12 years of his life to research of the traces of the meteorite of Toungouska and thinks of having thrown the light on one of the greatest mysteries of the XXe century, in spite of the skepticism of the scientific circles. Mr. Lavbine chairs the foundation Phenomenon space of Toungouska Krasnoïarsk, about fifteen enthusiastic -- geologists, chemists, physicists, mineralogists -- who organize regularly since 1994 of forwardings on the spot of the catastrophe. According to the assumption of Mr. Lavbine, a mysterious comet and machine flying entered in collision at an altitude of 10 kilometers, causing cataclysm. Mr. Lavbine and his team affirm to have found during a forwarding at the end of July on banks of Podkamennaïa Toungouska, between the villages of Baïkit and Poligous, two strange black stones, in form of regular cubes, 1,5 meter on side. These stones which are obviously not natural origin seem to have left the flames and their matter points out an alloy used for the construction of the space launchers, whereas at the beginning of the XXe century it had only plywood planes there!, exclaim Mr. Lavbine. The researcher estimates that they could be the remainders of a machine even stealing an extraterrestrial vessel. He however recognizes that the examination of the stones did not start yet. Another discovery made by Mr. Lavbine: an enormous white stone, size of a izba, inserted in the top of a rock, right in the middle of devastated taïga. the natives called it The Deer Stone. It is composed of a crystallized matter which is not typical for this area , entrusts the researcher, supposing that it is about a fragment of the core of comet of 1908. The importance of these discoveries is questioned by official science. There are many amateurs who organize forwardings on the spot of the cataclysm of Toungouska. In Siberia where work regularly of the oil geologists, one can find a mass of unspecified fragments of machines , affirms with irony Anna Skripnik, a person in charge for the Committee on the meteorites of the Academy of Science. But Mr. Lavbine is not discouraged by the comments skeptics. Among the evidence advanced by the engineer, of the photographs of the area made by satellite. According to Mr. Lavbine, one sees there the prints of the flying machine -- marshes and lakes with the lengthened forms -- and those of comet: devastated forest, damaged trees flarings and rocks. And on the supposed spot of their collision, one can observe a crater of a diameter of 500 meters, raises it. -- Faites un voeu et puis Voila ! www.voila.fr __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Hello to the List. I'ml searching any information for NWAs ranging from NWA 1957 to NWA 2999 and from NWA 3010 to 3200.

[meteorite-list] Strange structure in L chondrite
Hello, I've got the fragment of a L6 chondrite which presents a strange structure, at the meeting point of 3 veins. I think it's a glassy structure resulting from the heat reaching the inner of the meteorite by the shock veins but I'm not sure. The size of this structure is a bit more than 1cm. Can anyone tell me what it is ? The picture can be seen at : http://www.meteor-center.com/chondr1.jpg or http://www.meteor-center.com/chondr2.jpg Thanks a lot, Pierre -- Faites un voeu et puis Voila ! www.voila.fr __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] NWA meteorites CD-ROM
Hello to the List. I'm starting an ambitious project to have a clear view on the NWA mess. I want to create a CD where each classified or unclassified NWA would be detailed (Bulletin information), including one or more photos, pairing notification, ... I see regularly on eBay some very nice pictures of NWA (Mike Farmer, Hupe brothers, etc...) that I would like to use for this CDROM. At the moment, I store them on my computer for further use. I'm planing for a release in late 2004 at a low price (under 20$ probably). It would be an important tool for meteorite collectors who have some difficulties to get information on the thousands of NWA already named. I you have got some wishes for this CD or accept that I use your pictures, just write me in private. Regards, Pierre-Marie PELE www.meteor-center.com P.S.

[meteorite-list] Meteorite crater or crumbling of ground ?
Hello to the list ! During my prospecting trip to Spain hunting for the meteorite of the 4th january 2004, I saw once in a field this circular phenomenon. You can see the picture at this address : http://www.meteor-center.com/dossier/espagne2004/crater.jpg The terrain contains no stones, only mud and grass. There's no track to reach this place. That's the only hole of this kind we found during our one week trip. Also, it is situated on the trajectory of the meteor. According to you, what is this ? I thank you in advance for your help.

[meteorite-list] SPANISH BOLIDE : IMPORTANT FIND !
Our recovery team went to Spain from 8th to 14th March 2004. We followed the estimated trajectory of the bolide observed over Spain the 4th January 2004. At the moment, only two small fragments have been recovered by a journalist on vacation in the area and several other stones by a Spanish recovery team. We are the first meteorite hunters to have done a significient find. On the 10th March 2004 in the afternoon, we found on a track a complete 1380 grams meteorite in the north of the Palencia District. It is classified as a H chondrite. Our museum quality individual is 98% covered with fusion crust. There's a small window showing the inside, with shock veins. The first worldwide public show of this meteorite will be done by our recovery group at the Ensisheim Show, in June 2004.

[meteorite-list] In 2003, redesign your meteorite website !
Hello and happy new year to the members of the list. I'm Pierre (from France). I'm new to this list but some of you know me as I'm a meteorite collector and hunter and I also buy many meteorites. My occupation is webmaster and website designer. As you know, meteorites are expensive for a collector so I'd like to make you a proposal. Many of you may have an oldish website or even no website at all ! In return for rebuilding or making a brand new website, you could give me meteorites that I could choose in your inventory. My rates are in any case a lot smaller that those of a web agency. Don't forget that a website is your brand image for your customers and that a well-designed site will provide you more sales. Thanks a lot ! By reason of privacy, each instance will be studied out of this list and will be rated with its person in charge.
