Darren, you seem to have covered all the "bases". Interesting speculation. I'll be interested to learn if any emperical evidence points towards one over the other. Isn't cosmic radiation and therefore age in space determiable?

Are there any official ideas what happens to lunar meteorites between being blasted off the Moon and when they strike Earth? Is it a straight shot (so a low transit time) or do they go into lunar orbit and then later be captured by Earth, or go directly into Earth orbit, or maybe even a seperate solar orbit at the same distance as the Earth/Moon system? Or more than one of the above? ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
