Re: [meteorite-list] Sutter's Mill Update - TKW now 937.75g (SM74 added)

The weather is about to get really nice through much of the country. I'm really curious to see if more stones will be found from this fall. And if a significant new find is recovered, it my spur a few others who have been sitting on undeclared finds to announce their stones. :) I'll still keep

[meteorite-list] Fusion Crust

Would a meteorite found Mars show a fusion crust or is the Martian atmosphere too thin? Chris Spratt Victoria, BC __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list

Re: [meteorite-list] Fusion Crust

Hi Chris,  This is an interesting question. I would imagine for a meteorite to survive a landing on Mars,  that it would have to slow down to a degree. The only mechanism is friction with the atmosphere.  The extreme speed should be enough to create a plasma, and so a fusion crust should

Re: [meteorite-list] Mars Rock Touched By NASA Curiosity Rover Offers Surprises

[meteorite-list] Ad: Special: NWA 7324 - EH Melt Rock

Dear list members, today I have something really special to offer, NWA 7324 (prov.), an EH melt rock. This is one of the rarest meteorite classes, probably rarer than Lunar and Martian meteorites. NWA 7324 is possibly the first EH melt rock which is available for the private collectors (??).

Re: [meteorite-list] Fusion Crust

Chris, Pat, and List, Judging by the heat shield design recently required by Curiosity, http://www.gizmag.com/curiosity-shield/23588/, I would say yes, a meteorite on the surface of Mars should display a fusion crust. With a pressure of only 1/100th that of Earth’s, there’s too much of it to

Re: [meteorite-list] Fusion Crust

HI Chris: Remember that most meteorites go into dark flight at 30 or so km above the earth. The atmosphere is very thin up there maybe 10 milibars and is probably similar to the Martian atmosphere near the surface. Of course the terminal velocity would be quite high and the meteorite would hit

Re: [meteorite-list] Roadside Hunting and Ownership

Related to that, I did an ad hoc study once going down the British Museum's Catalog of Meteorites as to what profession finds the most meteorites: Farmers, Bedouins, and Grave Diggers seem to be the at the top. Elton On Thu, Oct 4, 2012 at 12:27 AM, Count Deiro countde...@earthlink.net wrote:
