Dear Graham and Meteorite_List,
Thanks Richard! You know I'm busy -ha!
Here is some information on the Mt. Lemmon SkyCenter tours during the
Tucson Gem Show time frame: http://skycenter.arizona.edu/
There is a fee and reservations required for these tours; I am not sure
if they are daytime or nighttime:
Jan. 29 and 30 Tour groups at Biosphere 2 and the Flandrau Science
Center will enjoy views of Mars via _remote_ observing from Mt. Lemmon
(Note that Jan. 30 is the same night as the free Arizona Meteorite
Exhibition).
Feb. 13 and 14 on Mt. Lemmon
Feb. 24 and 25 on Mt. Lemmon
These activities are independent of the Arizona Meteorite Exhibition.
So for more specific information on times and travel arrangements
call (520) 626-8122 or email skycen...@as.arizona.edu
<mailto:skycen...@as.arizona.edu>.
I hope to see many of you soon!
Dolores Hill

It is a 6.5 hours drive from Grand Canyon Village to Tucson, if you don't stop
and don't run into traffic.
Dolores is eternally busy, so I'm not that surprised she hasn't had a chance to
respond.
The trip up to Mt. Lemmon is a separate event hosted by the people at the Mt.
Lemmon Sky Center. I'm not sure of the date, but Dolores might have that
information I'm sure once she has it she'll post it here.
Thank you and I'm glad you have a slice of TC3. As Anne Black said, she'll have
samples for sale in her room. I'll probably be in and out of her room several
times the first few days as well, and with Geoff as her room mate, I imagine
that room will a hub of non-stop activity.

Hi Richard
Wow..I was 'hanging around' those trees then when I visited
the Flandrau Centre during my last Tucson show then?
Thinking of doing a mad drive down from the Grand Canyon for
that evening at the Kuiper Space Sciences building. Have you
heard any more about/had anything to do with a trip up to
the observatory that has been mentioned.
Congratulations on your discovery of 2008 TC3 and thus
Almahatta Sitta by the way...never got round to saying that,
but have my slice sitting proudly at the front of my
collection.
Regards,
Graham
