to the meteorite vault at the Smithsonian Natural
history museum, I got a look at an Antarctic meteorite
numbered 76001 (dont remember the location to go with
the number). It was orange and bigger than a
basketball and covered in

In 1968, an Ataxite of 25 kg falled in Alandroal, not far of the popular
Ourique.
The authorities came imediatly, and confiscated the stone, to store it
temporarily at the local prison.
Days after, it was moved to the national museum, were it was analysed and
where it remains in display today.
Hallo list,
sorry that I am a little late with the photos, but I was very busy the last 2

Anyways, here are some nice impressions from the Gifhorn Meteorite Show 2006.
Unfortunatly I could not take so many photos as usual because I was busy at my
table, but I will try to do it better

I don't clean it, because it's always empty :-(
Guess we should sell the meteorite from our quiz, to fill it.
No correct solution of da quiz yet - hence the piece must be exceptional..

Unless Armando wrote other posts I did not read I do not

Yes, I concur. You are absolutely correct.
