[meteorite-list] Team Restoring Mars Orbiter After Reboot (MRO)
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.cfm?release=2010-304 Team Restoring Mars Orbiter After Reboot Jet Propulsion Laboratory September 17, 2010 Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Mission Status Report PASADENA, Calif. -- NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter put itself into a precautionary standby mode after experiencing a spontaneous computer reboot on Sept. 15. The mission's ground team has begun restoring the spacecraft to full operations. Initial analysis of telemetry from the orbiter indicates the safe mode status was triggered by a reboot similar to one experienced Aug. 26, 2009. That was the most recent time that the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter put itself into safe mode. For 10 months prior to this latest reboot, the spacecraft operated normally, making science observations and returning data. During 2009, unplanned reboots put the spacecraft into safe mode four times. The orbiter has normal power, fully charged batteries and safe temperatures. The team has increased the data-rate of communications and is taking additional steps to resume science observations soon. The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, at Mars since 2006, has met the mission's science goals and returned more data than all other Mars missions combined. It completed its primary science phase of operations in November 2008, but continues to observe Mars both for science and for support of future landed missions. The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter mission is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. Caltech manages JPL for NASA.

Re: [meteorite-list] test
Hi, Im not sure if I sent you an email or not, but Heaven loved the meteorites. I had so much to catch up on after the DC trip that I just now got everything taken care of. Closed out a trade with ASU for a nice amount of Orguiel, so she got a little 30mg micro of that for her collection too. Hope all is good, and yeah the test passed. Its tough with the plain text thing...

Maybe a better description of the grey color of the stony I was asking about would be to say it's the color of ashes. Sorry for the extra post on this.

Hi Mike, Yes... I've have numerous NWA stone meteorites with gray fusion crust. A couple of them were achondrites. Not sure what type of achondrite though. Do you have one?
