"...The team will use cameras and binoculars to look for burn patches on
the ground..."
Really? I wonder why they would be looking for burn patches. They're not
referring to burn patches caused by "flaming meteorites". Are they?
"...then direct ground crews to those locations to hunt for meteorite
particles..."
Ummm.
This is just silly.

Eric

not see a 50 gallon barrel from 500 ft up. Good luck with that plan.
Must be nice to work on the expense account!

A new way of hunting the Sutter's Mill 'main mass':
" Scientists today are mounting a massive search in the Sierra Nevada foothills
for meteorite fragments [...]
Experts from NASA and the SETI institute are en route to Sacramento this morning
aboard a zeppelin provided by Airship Ventures, based at Moffett Field in the Bay
Area. They were expected to stop briefly at McClellan Park airfield around 11 a.m.,
then lift off again to spend the afternoon surveying foothill regions of Placer and
El Dorado counties. "
