Hi all -
>From the MPML mailing list.
"Good morning all.
I am interested in the latest research on how many known impact sites there are
on earth. I thought the number was under a hundred - but my information may be
several decades old.
I just started watching a program on the science channel, Meteorite Men. I
know, sounds a bit hoaky. But it is interesting to see them find meteorites
from a few ounces to several hundred pounds on a regular bases. During a recent
episode they showed a map of Kansas with known meteor strikes/fields -
apparently associated with past meteorite finds. There appeared to be more then
a hundreds sites depicted in the map. So now I am wondering just how many known
sites there are and also the number of known impact craters.
Where would one go to find authoritative information on the subject?
If I should be asking the question on a different list, just point me in the
right direction.
