Hi, Doug,

The article Ron cited was a newspaper article.  It contains what the 
reporter
understood and could remember and we all, sadly, know how that goes!  It's only 
a little
muddled, but I was impressed that the news in Springfield, Missouri, did so 
relatively
well.
You'd have to know Springfield, Missouri to appreciate that, in the 
cultural capitol
of the Ozarks.  I can be snide about the Mountain William ethnicity, being one 
myself, down
to the missing tooth, but nobody else better.
Go to the link:
http://geosciences.smsu.edu/faculty/Evans/impacts.htm
If you move around through Evans' site, you'll see all the geological 
evidence nicely
presented.  He is the guy who has done the drilling and investigation that 
brought
attention (and proof of shocked quartz) to the impact site and why this 
conference was
there in the deep Missouri boonies.
As for the crinoid crowd, my old house, being elevated far above street 
level, has a
winding walk and stairway up to the door that was made from slabs from the 
local quarry
here on the Mississippi River's edge, hauled home by the two and threes by my 
father in our
old Ford in 1939.
These stones didn't just have fossils in them -- they are solid fossil, a 
carpet of
crinoids and all their former neighbors in the Ordovician seas of the Mid-West. 
 I think
there may be some Devonian interlopers in there too.
They were my geology text as a child and I spend many long summer hours 
crawling up and
down the steps with my nose to the crinoids and other assorted critters.
This course of study climaxed at the age of six when I took a small sledge 
hammer and
masonry chisel to the steps and removed a large and perfect Dinorthis from 
them, much to
the displeasure of my parent!
He was wise enough to take me to the quarry's trash pile and let me select 
a few
boxfuls of the most fossiliferous fragments to take home and disassemble if I 
promised to
leave the steps alone, which I did, so my crinoid walkway is still intact.

[meteorite-list] Scientists Use Meteors to Investigate Climate Change and Giant Waves at the 'Edge of Space'

2005-05-23 Thread Ron Baalke

http://www.bath.ac.uk/pr/releases/antarcticradar.htm

Scientists use meteors to investigate climate change and giant
waves at the 'edge of space'

University of Bath
News Release
May 23, 2005

A new research radar based in Antarctica is giving scientists the chance
to study the highest layer of the earth's atmosphere at the very edge of
space.

Using the new radar, scientists will be able to investigate climate
change and explore the theory that while the lower atmosphere is
warming, the upper atmosphere is cooling by as much as 1 degree
centigrade each year.

The new radar base at the Rothera research station in the AntarcticThey
will also be able to find out more about the complex waves, tides and
other mechanisms that link this region - known as the mesosphere - to
the lower regions of the atmosphere.

At heights of around 80-100km (50-62 miles) the mesosphere is
notoriously difficult to investigate and is the least-explored part of
the earth's atmosphere.

The low air pressure at this altitude means that it is impossible to fly
aircraft in the mesosphere and even the huge weather balloons that are
used to measure stratospheric ozone cannot climb high enough to reach
this altitude.

Satellites begin to burn up when they enter the mesosphere, so the new
radar - just installed at the Rothera research base in Antarctica in a
joint project between the University of Bath and the British Antarctic
Survey (BAS) - will help scientists explore the region using remote sensing.

Fortunately, nature provides us with an excellent answer to the problem
of investigating the mesosphere, said Professor Nick Mitchell who heads
the project in the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering
at the University of Bath.

Meteors, or 'shooting stars', burn up in the mesosphere. The meteors
drift just like weather balloons so we can use a radar on the Earth and
bounce radio waves off the meteors to find how fast they are moving and
so measure the winds at the edge of space.

The fading of the radio echoes from the meteors also lets us measure the
temperature of the atmosphere. We can detect thousands of meteors in any
one day and with this information study the waves and tides that flow
around the planet on a continuous basis.

The mesosphere has been called the miner's canary for climate change;
meaning that it is very sensitive and the changes there may be larger
than in any other part of the atmosphere.

Evidence of these changes comes from sightings of noctilucent clouds,
very unusual clouds seen only in polar regions and known to be in the
mesosphere. These clouds don't seem to have been observed before 1885
and may mark the onset of a long-term cooling of the upper atmosphere.

The researchers hope to use this temperature data to see if the effects
of climate change are present in the upper atmosphere.

The radar is the latest element in a global array of radars being
installed by the University of Bath group. It will be used in tandem
with an identical radar at Kiruna, inside the Arctic Circle in Northern
Sweden, to find out if there are any differences between the Arctic and
Antarctic upper atmosphere.

We know that there are big differences lower down in the atmosphere,
for instance in the stratosphere the ozone hole is much larger over the
Antarctic than over the Arctic, but we don't really know what the
differences are like higher up, said Professor Mitchell.

Dr Pete Younger installing the new radarFirst results from the radar
show that it is detecting about 5,000 meteors ever day. Analysis at the
University of Bath has revealed frigid temperatures in the mesosphere,
the lowest temperatures of about -130ºC, paradoxically occurring at
midsummer.

The Rothera radar has been installed by Dr Peter Younger, a postdoctoral
researcher from the University assisted by colleagues from BAS.

The radar is made of six antennas about 2 metres high set up over a
space the size of a football pitch. The site itself is a rocky beach on
the edge of Marguerite Bay - a landscape of icebergs, penguins and
seals. Dr Younger has just returned to the UK having spent two months on
the installation.

Hola Sterling, You remind me of the Indiana dealer (a 9-year old  boy, son of 
a a religious man-among other jobs) who was hunting up crinoid  bushels in 
corn bags and found what he called a Warty Toad, which proved to be  the Holy 
Grail of Crawfordsville.  Maybe your Indiana neighbors are wiser  than they get

vegetable (Sea Lilies)...  And I'd love to trade you my field  guide for one

the interesting pages (or should I say steps) from your kiddie  fossil book 
anytime!  Thanks for the link, but with my slow connection  It'll be a while 
before I dig into the answers in the pdf's on the site.   Assuming the impact 
is 
300 million years old -give or take- Mississipian or  Pennsylvanian, it could 
have been timed during the lifetimes of the beautiful  crinoids in the 
western part of Missouri.  I am still really curious to  know if their were

Hello Darren and List,

There are presently only about thirty L3.8 chondrites in our collections and
the heavily shocked NWA 987 is one worth having. My 7.6 g slice from Bruno 
Carine has abundant grayish-white clasts and chondrules, fresh dark fusion
crust, a few armored chondrules, abundant FeNi specks and flakes and it is
rich in troilite. There is also a large armored chondrule and I am not sure
whether I'm looking at a radiating pyroxene chondrule or at a polysomatic
compound chondrule.

Darren's price is absolutely OK. I had to pay more when I purchased my slice.
Darren's description says the TKW is 975 grams but, according to my sources
it's 900 gr + another 1600 gr (2 pieces).

Best wishes and congrats to the
lucky buyer of this 18g partslice,

Bernd and all, NWA 987 was my meteorite, I had it classified, it was ONE 
Stone, I bought it in Denver a few years back.
Anyone selling NWA 987 and saying that there were more stones is full of

Hello Mike and list,

Meteoriticial Bulletin 86 reports the weight at 975 grams, which is were 
Darren likely got that number.  (Unless it was from my website or Eric 
Twelkers)


I have a small 2.66g part slice, with a Farmer card, on my website here:

http://www.meteoritearticles.com/colnwa987.html

I wrote that it was purchased in Morocco, as I think that is what the 
bulletin reads.  Some NWA's it notes as having been purchased in Denver, and 
I don't think this one does.  I will change that later.  Does this mean the 
date in the bulletin is off as well?  August 1st.  The Denver show being in 
mid-September.


NWA 987 is a great looking meteorite with wall to wall chondrulesthat 
seem on average, somewhat small3-4mm.

[meteorite-list] chondrule size range?

2005-05-23 Thread Tom Knudson
Hello List, I have a meteorite you probably seen before that is in getting
classified. It was 205 grams and I have sliced 3/4's of it up. This
meteorite was packed with chondrules but one chondrule stood out, nothing
special as far as chondrules go, but it is huge, not huge for a chondrule,
but huge for this meteorite!  I am wondering how one big chondrule could end
up in a meteorite. I have seen pics of other meteorites with one large
chondrule, but never heard an explanation of why.
 Or maybe the question should be, why are the others so small?  : )
