Michael,
How about throwing it an old globe. You could get the feeling of a meteorite
smashing into the earth. Maybe you would even get a strewn field.

I just put up a could of "TV Stars" on Ebay, meteorites that were found on
one of our Meteorite Men episodes.

Benjamin and Doug:
It has been a few years since I have done any spectroscopy of asteroids.
Also, I have not seen the Rosetta spectral results to be able to judge
what they are proposing. However, even as of a year ago, there was
uncertainty with respect to the spectral classification of Lutetia.

I suggest you target the bottle and the remains, if there are any, that

Without knowing what research has been done studying Lutetia, if memory

The regolith (dust) on the moon is pretty think as evidenced by the depth of

and native rocks?
That answer should hint at the tr

I remember, reading a meteorite book years ago - long before NWA meteorites

ordinary chondrite meteorite, in situ, in Australia.

great treasure.

Regolith is mostly powdered rock and pebbles from the parent body that
may or may not be compacted at the surface.
So why should the reflectance spectra from Lutetia's regolith be
totally dismissed? Are you dismissing Spectroscopy of asteroids
altogether?

Hi Mike, All;

please be sure to get and note the highest framerate possible so we can

Any of this has to be taken in a very speculative sense as there are no
smoking guns or even luminous trail as was the case of Vesta.
The correction for weathering of the regolith is hokey when applied to
a case like this, and not one for which we have specimens already to

The measured high density of Lutetia also supports an enstatite composition.
And Lutetia is covered with a regolith, estimated to be 3km thick!
Lutetia is very old too, and probably darkened naturally through long
term solar exposure. Both of these factors can contribute to a lower
albedo compared
