[Greg Hupe via Meteorite-list]

I don't have time for anybody's BS here. I especially have not gone further 
reading after Darryl's and the Keyboard Kommander himself denouncing 
(Claiming) their claims to Fame. I am really tired of these kind of 
opportunists trying to Hijack my 'simple' "Thank You". How pathetic is 
that?!!!


Can I not do MY JOB without some lazy opportunists taking advantage of my 
friends?!!!


Ask yourself that and sleep well..

I just now realized how I had left out an important piece of the email 
earlier.
The Kalahari lunars have never been seen or exhibited publicly. I and many 
others have serious doubts about even their existence.
The tiny samples shows in photos show a very ugly lunar. Those could never 
be compared to NWA 5000 in value or any other way. I forgot to add the name 
in my last email. Please don't get confused. If anyone claims to have a 
lunar nicer or larger please put it on the scale and show it. Otherwise it's 
all just talk.

Re: [meteorite-list] Kalahari lunar vs NWA 5000

[Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list]

The Kalahari "Lunar meteorites", if they exist at all at the claimed 
weights, have been managed poorly.  First of all, the weight is rounded off 
to an even 13,500 grams on the larger stone which is suspicious to begin 
with and then the only published image is blurry and overexposed. For all we 
know, these stones were weighed on a bathroom or produce scale and we all 
know how accurate those are or the weight might have been guesstimated since 
the scale might top out at ten kilograms.  There are no flight markings or 
anything that resembles a crust.  The way it is, Kalahari 009 would not meet 
the strict standards of achieving a recognizable world record due to poor 
management, lacking documentation and multiple verified witnesses.


NWA 5000, on the other hand, was weight certified within ten minutes of 
unpacking it at the University of Washington with multiple witnesses 
present.  The occasion was well-documented and photographed.  I spent over 
200 hours creating a casting mold and manufacturing two precise replicas in 
order to preserve details which would be lost the second it was cut.   I 
have worked with NWA 5000 since it was found, spent months single-handedly 
negotiating its purchase, thousands of hours solely micromanaging every 
aspect of it including developing a website that is about the stone and not 
me.  I have never used this stone to shamelessly promote myself; It has 
always been about the stone.


I spent the first six years, before others came onboard, trying to place the 
nearly complete NWA 5000 main mass whole but ran into interference every 
step of the way.  This included three well-known dealers offering the 
Kalahari "lunar" main mass to prospective buyers.  I asked repeatedly for 
them to produce the Kalahari "moon rocks" and even offered to purchase them.


When it came time, the Kalahari "lunar meteorites" were nowhere to be seen 
which is the case of many other fraudulent offerings.


The Shirokovsky Pallasite comes to mind every time I think of the Kalahari 
"Moon Rocks."


Now there is a claim of a puzzle meteorite weighing twice as much. 
Reassemble the weathered out puzzle, have it weight certified and then we 
will see.  Until then, these recent statements mean nothing to be me other 
than another jealous or feeble competitive attempt at the top-rated, 
Legendary NWA 5000 Lunar Meteorite.


Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence!

Re: [meteorite-list] Kalahari lunar vs NWA 5000

[Darryl Pitt via Meteorite-list]

Folks

NWA 5000 is a spectacular meteorite whose resume did not require enhancing.  I 
wholly agree there is no lunar that's nicer.  That said, Kalahari 009 exists 
—it's a fact.  I am not going to climb into the details other than to share 
that the owner is a paranoid eccentric who has gone to great lengths to remain 
anonymous.  That's all that is at work here.  Nothing nefariousjust put 
Occam's Razor back into play.   In addition, I know of two other lunar masses 
that are larger than NWA 5000—one reassembled and one intact.

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks via Meteorite-list]

It's always amazing how these people can run all sorts of tests on
their rocks, use lots of scientific jargon, make big claims, but their
websites look like a stoned 5-year-old built them. None of these
nutjobs have any idea how to build a decent-looking website.  LOL.

If you are going to push a load of bullshit on to the world, at least
make a professional-looking website to do it.

 Great to see this happen. Just love it when exciting new meteorite

 emerge and collaborations between museums, the  scientific community and
 the

 lunar in my opinion even though in the last couple of years a large

The Kalahari lunars have never been seen or exhibited publicly. I and many 
others have serious doubts about even their existence. 
The tiny samples shows in photos show a very ugly lunar. Those could never be 
compared to NWA 5000 in value or any other way. I forgot to add the name in my 
last email. Please don't get confused. If anyone claims to have a lunar nicer 
or larger please put it on the scale and show it. Otherwise it's all just talk.

Re: [meteorite-list] NWA 5000 Goes Ivy League - NEW Display at Yale!

[Michael Farmer via Meteorite-list]

Whoever has them is an idiot. The value of lunars has fallen 80% since the time 
they were reported.

Re: [meteorite-list] NWA 5000 Goes Ivy League - NEW Display at Yale!

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks via Meteorite-list]

Hi List,

I think the mystery surrounding the Kalahari lunars is what makes them
interesting. I have asked about them in the past and nobody seems to
know much about them. From what I have read, they have been
classified, but have never been made available to collectors. I do not
know of a single private collector who has a specimen of these
meteorites. I also cannot find any academic papers or articles about
these meteorites. Their only documentation appears to be the brief
entries in the Meteoritical Bulletin.

Are there any photos of these meteorites available? Does anyone own a
specimen of these meteorites? Where are they now? Have any scientists
in the western world examined or worked with any specimens?

NWA 5000 is, without a doubt, the most aesthetically appealing lunar
meteorite in the world. I do not think there is any debate over that
fact. Other lunars are attractive, but NWA 5000 is in a class of it's
own. NWA 5000 is also one of the most well-known lunars. It has been
photographed, exhibited, studied, and published countless times. But,
it's claim to be the "world's largest lunar" will always have
questions surrounding it because of Kalahari 009.  I think it is safe
to say, for now, that NWA 5000 is the most documented large lunar, but
some curious parties would like to see the Kalahari 009 mass.

Who is sitting on the Kalahari 009 mass, and why don't they make
photos or specimens available? Is it just sitting in a museum
somewhere in Botswana?  And if so, why doesn't somebody visit that
museum and snap a photo of it?

I'm not trying to throw shade at NWA 5000 - I am just curious about
the about large lunars, and would love to see what the Kalahari 009
mass looks like.

Best regards,

MikeG

[meteorite-list] AD - Magazine with first use of Meteor-wrong?

[ALAN RUBIN via Meteorite-list]

As far as I know, one of the first published uses of the term
"Meteor-wrong" was by Edward Olsen in the April 1979 issue of the Field
Museum of Natural History Bulletin. He wrote an article with that title
discussing some of his experiences as the meteorite curator at the Field
Museum in Chicago. Olsen was my M.S. thesis adviser at the time. Among
other features in that magazine issue is a reprint of a 1948 article on
butterflies by Vladimir Nabokov, who later went on to write Lolita.  There
is also an article of mine on time and relativity. I have extra copies of
that issue and will part with them for $12.00 a piece.  I'll pay the
postage.  I'll also be happy to sign the front page of my article. If you
are interested, you can send a check made out to me at the address below
along with your name and address.  Alternatively, you can send money via
PayPal using my e-mail address: aeru...@ucla.edu   If you do that, please
include your name and address in the note along with the payment.
I'll sign my article and send the issue out to you.

Hi,

While this is great — many congratulations! — the exhibit headline incorrectly 
states that NWA 5000 is "The World's Largest Lunar Meteorite." In the exhibit 
description it states that NWA 5000 is the largest lunar meteorite ever 
discovered.  Despite being uber-cool, NWA 5000 never held this distinction.  
Discovered nearly a decade earlier, the Kalahari 009 mass is significantly 
larger.  In addition, there is a recent lunar which fits together as a jigsaw 
which is more than twice as massive (which Tony analyzed many months ago).  
Still...very nice.   All the best / Darryl

Dear Meteorite Community,

I would like to personally "Thank" everyone for the wonderful public and 
private compliments and congratulations for the successful launch of the NWA 
5000 display in the Peabody Museum at Yale University.

Without the vision, support and encouragement from two very key participants 
this public display would never have been realized. I would like to draw 
attention to Dr. Tony Irving for the 'Vision, Encouragement and Friendship', 
who made this all happen. His unwavering friendship, devotion to meteoritics 
and continued help will always be cherished by me. He introduced me to Dr. 
Stefan Nicolescu of Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History who has fast become 
a dear friend as well. Stefan's open-minded and artistic demeanor combined the 
Babylonian clay tablet, 'Velocity of the Moon', and lunar meteorite NWA 5000 
into a single display after a couple of our visits throughout the Yale campus. 
This enabled the display to combine the 'Human Element' with a material object 
from our Earth's Moon!

The collaboration between Tony and Stefan was crucial in ensuring that 'The 
Display' has become a reality for all the world to share!

Once again, I would like to 'Thank' both Tony and Stefan!!

Best Regards,
Greg

Great to see this happen. Just love it when exciting new meteorite displays
emerge and collaborations between museums, the  scientific community and
the general meteorite community work out. NWA 5000 is still the most
beautiful lunar in my opinion even though in the last couple of years a
large number of others have been found...I think you have a few of them
Darryl ;-)

Which brings me to the Kalahari 009 mass which has always intrigued me.
Does anyone know more detail about the story behind this meteorite...I
would love to know more, or see photos details etc...and I'm sure many more
in our community would too.

Cheers,

Graham
