[meteorite-list] Geminid-time lapse catch

Greetings listoids, Saw this posted in a Utah astronomy forum, but it was captured at one of my old SoCal observing sites. Pretty nice work, though the meteor is simply 'burning up', as most do... not 'exploding'. Linton

Re: [meteorite-list] Prices for SouthWest Dry Lake Finds??? Old Women Meteorite

Hi folks, I just came across this old thread regarding the Old Woman's "potential sisters". I'm wondering if there's been any further developments on their recovery. We stopped by the Barstow Discovery Center last week, intending to visit the main mass again, but had forgotten that they're

Re: [meteorite-list] Salt Lake City fireball images?

Howdy Marc, I forwarded your inquiry to the Utah Astronomy mailing list, which should give you pretty good odds of locating the image(s). I'll forward any replies I might get. I hadn't yet moved here and missed that bolide, but saw a comparable one out my bedroom windows, on October 2,

Re: [meteorite-list] Creston new fall prices

Aloha folks, All this talk about new falls, L6's, etcetera, got me curious... There's 158 falls listed in the Met Bull for the USA. So California has it's "fair share", though for it's size and population, one might expect more. Did anyone mention that Novato was an L6? Texas is a big state -

[meteorite-list] Brilliant Utah fireball – October 2, 2014, revisited

A year ago tonight, my wife and I witnessed a dazzling fireball here in Torrey. I posted a report here, and noted that a few in the SLC area had seen it heading this way. I've expanded on it a bit for a stargazing column I've been writing for our little local paper. I'll post it below, just for

Greetings esteemed listoids, I'm trying to figure out a safe way to remove some minor - but annoying - rust stains (Brenham slice) from the membrane surface of a case. I'm afraid to try any solvents for fear of melting the membrane, which would be a cure worse than the disease. Has anyone out

Re: [meteorite-list] Does anyone buy entire meteorite colletions?

Hmm... interesting topic. I started out somewhat slowly, but soon went overboard with new acquisitions. For me, anyway. I've begun to thin out my collection a bit, but I'm certainly not ready to give it all up yet. Still, I need to strike a reasonable balance. I want to retain a respectable

Re: [meteorite-list] Weird Bounce Notices on the List

Ha! You'll have to do better than that, Mike. I finally retired my 2001 Dell desktop in December. Almost 14 years! I nursed it along a couple years too many, but the termination of Windows XP support finally sealed it's doom. Now I'm feeling like lightning and wish I'd have upgraded years ago.

Re: [meteorite-list] Middle school students lobbying Kansas lawmakers to declare official state rock

Hmm... only 27 items here in Utah. And one of those is an impact crater. I suspect there are a lot more finds out there, waiting to be found. Especially here in the south... and in the west desert. Wish I could still hike. Linton -Original Message- From: Shawn Alan via Meteorite-list

Re: [meteorite-list] Texas / Mexico Bolide Meteor 08NOV2014

Many of Dirk's reports sound a lot like the fireball my wife and I saw on Oct.3, here in southern Utah. But the videos pale, in comparison. Ours was either much bigger or much closer. But it was at 4:40am and not many people saw it. Linton - Original Message - From: Graham Ensor via

Really! It's a great book, which should be on every collector's shelf. Sadly, neither author lived long enough to promote it's sale. The least we can do is buy a copy in their honor. Linton - Original Message - From: Michael Mulgrew via Meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] brilliant Utah fireball!!!

Greetings all, I was treated to my best fireball ever last night, by a wide margin! I had got up at 4:00 and was lying there, about to fall asleep, when Karen started shouting to look. When I opened my eyes, the entire sky out our large, N/NE-facing windows was dazzling white! A moment later,
