special thanks to Jeff Kuyken for creating The Wonder of Meteorites
video. A beautiful compilation, and the best meteorite video I've ever
had the pleasure of watching
I'll second that, Eric.
Jeff really set the bar high with that glorious video!

A Golden Age INDEED!
A number of years ago I was discussing a dear friend and mentor's career over
another fine dinner and many bottles of fine wines.
I lamented how exciting it must have been to be involved in Planetary Science
through the 70s 80s and that I had missed it. He

Dear List Members,
I have a few really good meteorites for sale (trades are available also) :
- Ureilite NWA 6069 1828 gram Main Mass. Truly big primitive achondrite contain

Agreed, Mike. It's a pyrrhic victory because Steve endured negative
publicity, and some landowners now have a bad taste in their mouth
about meteorite hunters. It was unfortunate from every angle. But at
least now it's over.
Best regards,

Mike,
Thank you for the awesome visual--16 spheres in a presentation case--all
weighing 700gms, sizes would vary, of course. The price would too but what a
fantasy gift.

Would there be as many people interested in science if NASA had never

A very thought provoking question!

Good Evening List,
I was doing some Spring cleaning, and stumbled upon the invoice and mail order
receipt from my first meteorite purchase. 36 gram - Gibeon Iron Meteorite
Slice, Robert A. Haag - Meteorites, dated July 14, 1997. Has it already been
nearly fourteen years???.. I said to myself.
Hello Everyone,
We all know that a long time ago, Mars had a lot of water. Rivers, streams
lakes, ponds, oceans, etc. Every bit of evidence we have leads to this
conclusion.
Why are there no sedimenrary martian meteorites? They are all igneous.
Did sedimentation occur in a period after

Meant to type sedimentary

Yes, there is alot of Scientific detail in

Sapphire, Quartz, Iolite, Tanzanite, etc.. All of
these have different Hardnesses, Structural

Very nice Ryan, thanks for sharing that. I'm looking forward to more photos of
your collection.
Do you know of a site that hosts photos different private collections? That
would be pretty neat - there's probably one, but I don't do a lot web surfing
I also don't keep up with the met list
Sounds like you are describing the Encyclopedia of Meteorites website Mark.
