Wasn't there a lady professor that wrote an article a while back on the possibility of there being atypical appearing meteorites and we might be overlooking them? I realize that is somewhat of a wide-open question but to possibly narrow it down a bit, the name Prof. C. Floss seems to come to mind in my remembering this article. Seems like it had to do with mantle or lack of meteorites from a certain layer, or something similar. Anyone else remember this article? I'd like to read it again if I could come up with the link.

Hello list,

an artificial meteorite shows that sedimentary martian soil could reach earth, but possible microbes would get killed by the atmosferic flight:

The more interesting part of the experiment, to me, is the production of "creamy white fusion crusts". Wonder how many Martian sedementary meteorites (and old Earthites) have been passed over in the deserts because they were "the wrong
color"?
