Before I make any decisions regarding some of the more exotic theories that have cropped up recently on this board (the Nemesis star, the sun being a giant ball of glowing iron, etc.) would someone (or someones) please direct me to some reputable sources of information on these subjects? Moon landing hoax websites et. al. need not apply; I have no trouble finding conspiracy theorists. I know the Nemesis theory has been around a while, I believe even Isaac Asimov talked about it, but I am not up to speed on the newest information. And I haven't seen anything but the one secondhand press release on the iron sun theory.
And finally, just to make this post marginally about meteorites, is there a consensus on what constitutes a micromount? Mass? Lower limit? Upper limit? Crumbs in a gelcap? One pinhead fleck in a jewel box (my Chassignite)? I would love to have a saucer sized slab o' Esquel (who wouldn't?) but money and storage constrain me, and while I have a few bigger pieces, I am a micromount collector and proud of it.
