Hmm, intersting question. I don't know, probably that would date in the times of the first camera networks. So I would suppose the fall of Innisfree on 5th of Feb 1977, caught by the Canadian Camera Network. (Because I heard, that the first stone of Lost City was already discovered by the locals, when the camera team people arrived).
But in fact, I have no idea :-) Martin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Doug Ross Gesendet: Sonntag, 23.

A great account of the rigorous, often slow process that revolutionary new scientific theories must go through before gaining widespread acceptance. I have a related question. Who was the first person to accurately calculate the trajectories of meteors, and successfully recover meteorites based on those calculations? I'm not talking about someone who witnessed a meteor, and was lucky enough to have stones landing nearby. In other words, who was the first systematic meteorite hunter? Was it Nininger? - (the other) Doug [email protected] ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
