Great pic Bernd! A real stellar playground. On a technical note, the large chondrule in the upper center looks like a vicious Pacman with an eye and ear. Best, Martin On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 6:02 AM, spacerocks...@aol.com wrote: http://www.rocksfromspace.org/April_25_2009.html

2009-04-25 Thread Mark Crawford
I read a definition of a fall as being where the meteor is 'usually seen as a fireball' before it lands and is recovered. Obviously, I thought, it needs to be seen burning up - that's the very definition of a fall. I then considered that the definition would strictly be 'observed' to fall.
