Hello All, I thought I should pass this forward. My father just informed me that Brian Mason's obituary appeared in today's copy of the LA times; he passed December 3rd of this year. He published countless publications and a number of well-received books over the past several decades and was a major contributor to the modern field of meteoritics. He'll most likely be best remembered for his book "Meteorites" published back in 1962, a work that's still often referenced today. An all too-short biography can be found here.
