[meteorite-list] Stolen Campo de Cielo Specimen

2011-02-02 Thread Mark Grossman

Hi,

I just learned that a fist-sized piece of the Campo de Cielo meteorite and a 
Solnhofen dragonfly were stolen sometime in January from the Geological 
Museum of Trinity College Dublin.


Please be on the look out for any samples fitting this description with 
suspicious provenance.


Thanks.

Mark

Don't point at a rattle snake. They strike very quickly. And in AZ they can be 
seen  even during Winter.

Bu!, a low of 21 degrees Fahrenheit and a high of only 44 with high winds 
for the next couple of days.  It is unseasonable cold right now in the 
southwest. It would be a good idea to wear Antarctic gear.  Perhaps a parka 
jacket, ski cap, mask and gloves.  Hopefully, it will be nice for Superbowl 
Sunday.

See you at the show, leaving tomorrow morning.

 RELEASE: 11-029
 
 NASA'S NEOWISE COMPLETES SCAN FOR ASTEROIDS AND COMETS
 
 WASHINGTON -- NASA's NEOWISE mission has completed its survey of small 
 bodies, asteroids and comets, in our solar system. The mission's 
 discoveries of previously unknown objects include 20 comets, more 
 than 33,000 asteroids in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter, and 
 134 near-Earth objects (NEOs). The NEOs are asteroids and comets with 
 orbits that come within 28 million miles of Earth's path around the 
 sun. 
 
 NEOWISE is an enhancement of the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, 
 or WISE, mission that launched in December 2009. WISE scanned the 
 entire celestial sky in infrared light about 1.5 times. It captured 
 more than 2.7 million images of objects in space, ranging from 
 faraway galaxies to asteroids and comets close to Earth. 
 
 In early October 2010, after completing its prime science mission, the 
 spacecraft ran out of frozen coolant that keeps its instrumentation 
 cold. However, two of its four infrared cameras remained operational. 
 These two channels were still useful for asteroid hunting, so NASA 
 extended the NEOWISE portion of the WISE mission by four months, with 
 the primary purpose of hunting for more asteroids and comets, and to 
 finish one complete scan of the main asteroid belt. 
 
 Even just one year of observations from the NEOWISE project has 
 significantly increased our catalog of data on NEOs and the other 
 small bodies of the solar systems, said Lindley Johnson, NASA's 
 program executive for the NEO Observation Program. 
 Now that NEOWISE has successfully completed a full sweep of the main 
 asteroid belt, the WISE spacecraft will go into hibernation mode and 
 remain in polar orbit around the Earth, where it could be called back 
 into service in the future. 
 
 In addition to discovering new asteroids and comets, NEOWISE also 
 confirmed the presence of objects in the main belt that already had 
 been detected. In just one year, it observed about 153,000 rocky 
 bodies out of approximately 500,000 known objects. Those include the 
 33,000 that NEOWISE discovered. 
 
 NEOWISE also observed known objects closer and farther to us than the 
 main belt, including roughly 2,000 asteroids that orbit along with 
 Jupiter, hundreds of NEOs and more than 100 comets. 
 
 These observations will be key to determining the objects' sizes and 
 compositions. Visible-light data alone reveals how much sunlight 
 reflects off an asteroid, whereas infrared data is much more directly 
 related to the object's size. By combining visible and infrared 
 measurements, astronomers also can learn about the compositions of 
 the rocky bodies -- for example, whether they are solid or crumbly. 
 The findings will lead to a much-improved picture of the various 
 asteroid populations. 
 
 NEOWISE took longer to survey the whole asteroid belt than WISE took 
 to scan the entire sky because most of the asteroids are moving in 
 the same direction around the sun as the spacecraft moves while it 
 orbits the Earth. The spacecraft field of view had to catch up to, 
 and lap, the movement of the asteroids in order to see them all. 
 
 You can think of Earth and the asteroids as racehorses moving along 
 in a track, said Amy Mainzer, the principal investigator of NEOWISE 
 at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. We're moving 
 along together around the sun, but the main belt asteroids are like 
 horses on the outer part of the track. They take longer to orbit than 
 us, so we eventually lap them. 
 
 NEOWISE data on the asteroid and comet orbits are catalogued at the 
 NASA-funded International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Center, a 
 clearinghouse for information about all solar system bodies at the 
 Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Mass. The science 
 team is analyzing the infrared observations now and will publish new 
 findings in the coming months. 
 
 When combined with WISE observations, NEOWISE data will aid in the 
 discovery of the closest dim stars, called brown dwarfs. These 
 observations have the potential to reveal a brown dwarf even closer 
 to us than our closest known star, Proxima Centauri, if such an 
 object does exist. Likewise, if there is a hidden gas-giant planet in 
 the outer reaches of our solar system, data from WISE and NEO-WISE 
 could detect it. 
 
 The first batch of observations from the WISE mission will be 
 available to the public and astronomical community in April.

[meteorite-list] 12th Annual Tucson Birthday Bash is Friday!

2011-02-02 Thread Notkin

Dear Listees:

The Twelfth Annual Meteor Mayhem Birthday Bash will take place this  
Friday, February 4 at Sky Bar Tucson. This is the same great venue as  
last year -- an astronomy-themed nightclub.


Admission is free and all are welcome. Sky Bar is a nightclub, so 21  
and over only please (sorry, AZ regulations, not ours). The New York- 
style pizzeria next door is owned by the club, so there is great food  
available all night.


http://www.skybartucson.com

Sky Bar is located on Tucson's hip downtown Fourth Avenue, only about  
five minutes' drive from the InnSuites/Hotel Tucson City Center. The  
party starts at 7 pm and the annual Harvey Awards will commence at 8  
pm. The event runs as late as you want to stay.


536 North Fourth Avenue
(520) 622 4300

First-time visitors to the gem show should please feel especially  
welcome. This is a great chance to meet a large part of the meteorite  
community in one place. And please note: The latest news is our  
production company will be filming the party for possible inclusion in  
a future episode of Meteorite Men so feel free to dress up!  : )


In other news:

Show attendees, please stop by and see Anne Black and myself in our  
GREAT new showrooms. Same hotel, better quarters! 322 and 323 at the  
Hotel Tucson City Center/InnSuites


Details:  http://www.aerolite.org/events/tucson/tucson-meteorite-dealer.htm

I also have an outdoor booth at the Tucson Electric Park (TEP) selling  
extra-high quality Campos at bargain prices, so that is worth a visit  
if you're in town. We are on the main walkway in the middle of the TEP  
in a white tent. Just look for the METEORITE MEN banner.



Your hosts,

Geoff Notkin and Steve Arnold

[meteorite-list] AD: Special: Truly Perplexing New Rumurutiite NWA 6022 prov. ( budget slices of fresh BRA NWA 6349)

2011-02-02 Thread Chladnis Heirs
Dear meteorite community,

today we demonstrate once again, why our Specials are called special.

We have here a new R-chondrite
- which alone, also in our spoiled times, is something very remarkable.  -
But..
Usually, as you know us,  we would explain the particular properties of the
type, chemically and textural details, perhaps we would make some historical
excursions, would tell about statistics, masses, ev. a little price 
availability discourse ...and so on.

But here?

I think we should simply let you alone for some minutes with the pictures.

http://www.chladnis-heirs.com/special-nwa6022.html


Well.
We issued really a lot of different Rumurutiites the recent years, but one
like that one, we haven't seen yet - have you?

A very unique appeal. That very distinct and constantly thick weathering
frame all around.
That grayish-brown matrix, with the orange freckles everywhere.
Unbrecciated.
Chondrules - it is classified as an R4.
And here and there these huge inclusions, sometimes alabaster sometimes
somewhat pink, as if they would be borrowed from a bencubbinite.
Very interesting material, isn't it?
One could suppose that this strange appeal may be phenomena of extensive
weathering, but it isn't - as with W2/3  NWA 6022 is slightly fresher than
the average.

As we - and most probably you neither - haven't seen such an R before and so
far, we guess, that it must be unpaired.

Alas. Spectacular it is.

So let's keep the Special even more special.
The R-chondrite-prices everywhere you know - 
we say simply and despite these unique appearance:   20$ per gram

(and both Chladni's Heirs have a bet running, how quickly this special will
have been sold out :-)


And an addendum we have.

You might remember the very fine, fresher and affordable brachinite, NWA
6349, form the last but one special.
There we were asked, whether we couldn't cut also some smaller slices.
So we prepared also some very good budget pieces - at the same price per
gram like the large ones.

Here you are:

Best wishes!

[meteorite-list] Nakhlite fragment suggests impact caused water to flow on Mars

2011-02-02 Thread Robert A. Juhl
Rare fragments of Martian meteorites have been investigated at the 
University of Leicester revealing one of the ways water flowed near the 
surface of Mars


Hitesh Changela and Dr John Bridges used electron microscopes in the 
University’s Advanced Microscopy Centre to study the structure and 
composition of five nakhlites


By comparing the five meteorites, they showed the presence of veins 
created during an impact on Mars. They suggest that this impact was 
associated with a 1-10 km diameter crater.


Findings from the research have been published in Meteoritics and 
Planetary Science (Dec. 2010 issue, vol 45).
