That's easy. The water in the whiskey would evaporate
at Mars pressure-temps, and I think that the alcohol
might as well, for that matter.

Hi list,
I was just wondering whether, more than a year on, anyone had come
across this story about a meteorite with fossilized remains inside. I
have an ongoing project to collect these stories, and any weirder ones
that emerge!

Well, reading between the sensationalist headlines, it could very well be
liquid co2 or even just dust, they don't know, - (but as usual people seem to
be staring past the other options in favour of 'here's water therefore there's

Yes, agreed naturally, and I am not saying there possibly isn't life out there,
and we should be interested in Mars absolutley, BUT - caution, a few wet
streaks down a hillside is a million miles away from there being alien life
forms on mars. I bet there are planets out there in space with

Actually, it only took life one billion years to sprout, and under very
hostile and poisonous conditions!

Yes it is unstoppable, but the question is how 'un-startable' is it?!

A theory says that: Also if the Earth will hit by a big asteroid and
tears into pieces/asteroids (forming a new asteroid belt), you still
will find life on these asteroids.
Color perception varies considerably between people (just ask who sees
color in stars and who doesn't). About a third of people report no color
in fireballs; most of the rest see some variation of green, ranging from
pale lime to bluish. This is probably caused by the 558 nm forbidden
oxygen

Reentering objects are responsible for only a tiny fraction of
fireballs- well under 1% based on my empirical data. I think Marco has
looked at this, too... he might have better numbers. In any case, while
you certainly might have seen space junk, natural meteors are much more
likely.

Hi Jason,
Thanks for your thorough and I might say persuasive commentary on
fusion crusted irons. I did note one possible discordant data.
Campo del Cielo is an approximately 5000 year old fall and Nantan is
500 years old. Is the Nantan region so much worse (wetter?) that no

Hi, Visual, Chris, List
For the benefit of Listees following the question
of how slow a meteoroid can be...
The orbital velocity for any body is maximally
the escape velocity divided by the square root of 2,
or 70.707070707...%. Can we just call that 71%?
Escape velocity is 11,263.04
Comet Tempel-Tuttle, the parent body of the Leonids, is in a
low-inclination, retrograde orbit. We encounter the debris at 71 km/s,
and our own orbital speed is 29.6 km/s. Subtract that out and you get
the orbital speed for Leonid meteoroids: ~41.4 km/s. The solar escape
