Re: [meteorite-list] $20,000 for the Maine meteorite fall.

2016-05-24 Thread Dennis Miller via Meteorite-list
Not sure what you read in the article but, I got that he thought the meteor 
could
have been as big as 5 feet in diameter and was hoping that someone could find
a softball size sample.  It is a wet and very wooded area with no roads. Oh, 
other
SWAGS  were,  Canyon Diablo: size of a house, Chelyabinsk: size of a bus, 
Almahata Sita: size of a van.

[meteorite-list] $20,000 for the Maine meteorite fall.

2016-05-24 Thread Brian Cox via Meteorite-list
I'm very curious as to how this gentleman at the Mineral Museum in Maine 
determined that the Maine meteorite is approximately 5 inches in diameter, and 
"about the size of a softball." 

Did he have a Super Telescope he was viewing it through at the time, or how did 
he determine through weather or TV station, or parking lot cameras, or cell 
phone video with some math equation that it was the size of a softball? I 
honestly hope they find a piece that large, and that they find it by this 
summer or fall before the first big snow in the area.
