My theory on tektite formation: Go back to the impacts of cometary material on Jupiter in July of 1994. I think in this there is a clear demonstration of how tektites are formed. There were huge plumes of plasma extending out into space, and large dark clouds of re-condensed dust from the

Dear Steve, Norm and List Members, I posed a question to D. Futrell some 10 years ago concerning comet formation of tektites. I asked him if it was possible that a comet could have entered Earth`s atmosphere and left behind glass from melted silicates from both the comet and Earth entrained

As Sterling Webb wrote, if the reasoning he posited follows then there is no way that tectites came from the moon. The distribution on the earth, the ablation shapes, stretch forms, and lack of cosmic ray exposure pretty much eliminate the moon as the source. Steve Schoner IMCA #4470 Date:
