David inquired: Does anyone have any references, or recollection, of the circumstances of the fireball which proceeded the meteorite fall at Salzwedel on the 14th November, 1985. Direction of travel, magnitude, locations of observers - that sort of thing?...I'm curious to know if it could have been seen from south-east England - unlikely I know, but maybe possible?
Hello David and List, I can come up with two important references: RENDTEL J. and KNÖFEL A. (1986) Meteroitenfall in Hohenlangenbeck (Sterne 62, 181-183). RENDTEL J., KNÖFEL A. and SCHARFF P. (1986) Meteoritenfall in der DDR (Astronomie und Raumfahrt 24, 98-99). As André is a member of both the German forum and the U.S. MetList, he will surely read your inquiry and be able and willing to provide useful information on the Salzwedel LL6 chondrite fall! Best wishes from scalding hot Germany, Bernd ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
