Now that is a question I need to get answered. I never thought about it
before.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Proper field data
Hey all,
What info do you recommend collecting when a find is made in the field?
GPS coordinates (and datum used), in situ photos with a scale and weight
are a given. But what else?
I've also heard that one should not to apply a magnet to a new meteorite
because a manget can affect the magnetic susceptibility (doesn't a metal
detector affect it too?).
What about an historic location versus a new fall?
Everyone mentions collecting data, but are we all on the same page?
Clear skies,
Mark
