This got me thinking... some of the lunar impacts are being attributed
to well-known meteor showers.
Are there any good candidates for (earthly) meteorites which may be part
of such showers, and therefore potentially once part of the presumed
parent body? I guess candidate criteria would be time of year and (at
least rough visual) triangulation back to the radiant.
Or as many/most showers are associated with comets rather than
asteroids, is the material perhaps much more fragile and therefore less
likely to reach the earth's surface?
