[meteorite-list] Moon rock thief sorry (that he was caught)
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/orl-locmoonrock12021205feb12,1,3740121.story?coll=orl-news-headlinesctrack=1cset=true Moon-rock thief says he's sorry The man behind the 2002 theft apologizes to a mentor. A judge trims his sentence. By Henry Pierson Curtis | Sentinel Staff Writer Posted February 12, 2005 Thad Roberts, the mastermind behind the 2002 theft of NASA moon rocks, returned to Central Florida on Friday with a new credit on his rsum: founder of what may be the only astronomy club in the federal prison system. Since being sentenced more than a year ago, the once-promising doctoral candidate has been allowed out of his cell at night only once to study the stars. I miss being part of your world, he told internationally recognized NASA scientist Everett K. Gibson Jr., the mentor he betrayed. I know what I did is perhaps unforgivable for the rest of your life. Gibson listened from benches in the back of U.S. District Judge Anne's C. Conway's courtroom without acknowledging the apology. He flew in for the day from Houston to testify one last time against Roberts, who was being re-sentenced for stealing specimens described as priceless national treasures. Sentenced in 2003 to eight years, Roberts, 28, won a re-sentencing when an appeals court ruled Conway had erred by giving him more time than the federal sentencing guidelines permitted without adequately determining whether his crime greatly disrupted NASA operations. Conway amended the original sentence Friday, reducing it by 10 months. In July 2002, Roberts and two other interns stole a 585-pound safe containing moon rocks and Martian meteorites worth at least $21 million from Gibson's laboratory at Johnson Space Center. They also destroyed about 30 years' worth of Gibson's research records. The case was tried in Orlando because Roberts and two co-defendants were arrested a week after the theft when they tried to sell the missing specimens to undercover FBI agents at an area hotel. Friday's hearing determined that the theft destroyed the value of the rocks as research specimens, because the theft broke a chain of custody that began the moment astronauts picked the rocks off the surface of the moon in 1969. The hearing set the cost of the theft to NASA, taxpayers and Gibson at about $7 million in lost research and productivity. The crime also created a suspicion that persists at the space agency about interns recruited from the smartest science students in the United States to work at NASA. Sir, we are all having serious thoughts about interns in our laboratories now, testified Gibson, who now permits just one intern to work near his research. We do not allow him to work alone. Roberts told the court Friday that his goal is to receive a doctorate and try to find a way to make a positive contribution to the scientific community. His scientific pretension left Roberts defenseless to a cross-examination by Assistant U.S. Attorney Bruce Hinshelwood, who asked Roberts for his evaluation as a scientist of the comparative research value of the moon rocks before and after their theft. I can't say, Roberts answered. That's the point, isn't it? Hinshelwood responded. Nothing further, your honor. Before re-sentencing Roberts, Conway said she believes he knows the location of Gibson's stolen research records despite his claims to the contrary. She then declared that his crime had, in fact, greatly disrupted NASA operations. Roberts may not be returned to the minimum-security prison camp in Colorado, where he started his astronomy club, according to the federal Bureau of Prisons. A prison spokeswoman was not aware of any similar clubs.

I guess terrible photos and meteorwrongs go hand in hand: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemcategory=3239item=6511645278rd=1 Do you think that the sellers assume that if they show less of the supposed meteorite that it will increase the credibility?

[meteorite-list] CNN more info
By the way, the photo's they show quickly are Thuathe, all the little black children are holding pens I gave them. The second photo is a meteorite that Robert Woolard and his friend found on this last trip to Oman. It weighed just over 13 kilos and was all busted up as you can see in the clip. What a great find though. The meteorite you see me holding up in the desert was my new Lunar, which is also shown in the room here in Tucson.

Re: [meteorite-list] Mike's CNN piece... (here it is)
Here's the clip. It was provided to me by someone who wishes to remain anonymous (but my thanks to him) and I converted it to Divx format so that it could be reasonably small. You will need to have the Divx codec installed (plus MP3 for the audio) http://webpages.charter.net/garrison6328/farmer.html __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] Tucson Friends and Fanatics
Hello everyone, I'm really disappointed for not having more of an opportunity to have hung out at the birthday bash to the end with all the friendly faces, but the limo (Thanks very sincerely mis dos amigos) was turning into a pumpkin on us so we had to split. Every expedition always seems to have something special about it, and you are all such a nice crowd. Tucson 2005 had two especially high points that I will always remember- First the honor and pleasure of meeting for the first time in person Ingrid 'Twink' Monrad with Jim Kreigh. If a rock can have a story, Gold Basin now rings with THE wonderful fairy tale in my very modest but cherished collection. And secondly, well Mike, you really are very a kind person to let me touch the fabulous moon rock. Now I know as a fact and not just conjecture, that the moon is really not made of swiss cheese, and it looks like there really isn't a rabbit in the moon, either. My wishes are with you and the team next time soon come back really mooning us bigtime. Hope to catch up with everyone soon! Picked up a few other space concretes, magmas and enigmatic glasses, but nothing to risk tooting about in such distinguished company and royalty here. Scratched into one of the stools a the party... I went to Tucson But now I'm gone Left my change to jingle on Those who met me I bid farewell And those who didn't Can go to sell:) Saludos, Doug __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
