Hi all,
Launch complex 13 at Cape Canaveral has been demolished, a tad overdue,
since it has not been used since 1978. Launch complex 13 was used to launch
Lunar Orbiter missions as well as Atlas/Agena flights. May I suggest to
NASA, that instead of dumping it all in a landfill, key components

(picture 'desertIron1.jpg'). It is very fresh, flow lines and crust are
visible, along with a bluish hue to the entire

Perhaps NASA could raise funds for their homeless workers by selling bits of
complex 13, or funds for Katrina relief, in a hurry.
Why don't they wrap the ET tank where the foam breaks away with very light

Hi Robert,
I was looking at your Dhofar 1180 page:

And was intrigued by the moon phase gif. On my
computer it was cycling faster than once per second.
At this speed, it is obvious there is other motion and

Not at all. What would be a maximum selling price for a 150kg
Sikhote-shrapnel?
Like an acceptable Darjeeling Tea? 30$/kg
Like prosciutto di Parma? 40$/kg
Like a good malt whisky? 50$/kg
Like a lobster? 60$/kg
Like truffles? 2000$/kg (wow, I'm in the wrong branch.
Well, it is official, I have sold my entire meteorite collection to none other
