It's actually not as silly as everybody seems to think. There are a number of ages that one can speak about for an L chondrite, all of which are different and all of which are correct. These include a terrestrial age (how long on Earth), a cosmic-ray exposure age (how long in a small body in

[meteorite-list] Question: Sun/Moon

Hello All, May i ask a silly question? Answer, better than anyone you know. Well, will our Sun and Moon ever be 15 degrees apart from each other, as observed from Earth? Can this occurance be calculated or is it an impossibility? John IMCA# 1896

Re: [meteorite-list] Question: Sun/Moon

Hi John, Not quite sure what you mean... if the question is, 'less than 15 degrees apart in the sky, as observed from earth', then the answer is yes - every new moon. In some cases the angle is essentially zero - whenever there's a solar eclipse. M On 16 Apr 2011, at 02:09, John Lutzon wrote:

Hi: Yes they can be! I have seen them many times when the angle is more like .5 degree and less. Yes, a solar eclipse is one occasion when you cna see both in such proximity. As for the sun below the horizon and the moon above, new moon, the record les at somwhere between 10 to 12 degrees.
