Looks like our friend is at it again, this time making claims associates with 
the IMCA and some non-profit organization(his) that brings up no results in a 
Google search. Your purchase will be 80% tax deductible with the money going to 
his own organization.

Hello Stuart and Listees,

I see an added MetSoc reference and now evaluations are supported by IMCA 
I wish him all the success in the world. I truly and honestly pray that he 
sells a lunar meteorite. When he does, I trust he will share his 
accomplishment with the rest of us... 

Best to all,

Count Deiro

RELEASE: 11-046

NASA RELEASES IMAGES OF MAN-MADE CRATER ON COMET

PASADENA, Calif. -- NASA's Stardust spacecraft returned new images of 
a comet showing a scar resulting from the 2005 Deep Impact mission. 
The images also showed the comet has a fragile and weak nucleus. 

The spacecraft made its closest approach to comet Tempel 1 on Monday, 
Feb. 14, at 8:40 p.m. PST at a distance of approximately 111 miles. 
Stardust took 72 high-resolution images of the comet. It also 
accumulated 468 kilobytes of data about the dust in its coma, the 
cloud that is a comet's atmosphere. The craft is on its second 
mission of exploration called Stardust-NExT, having completed its 
prime mission collecting cometary particles and returning them to 
Earth in 2006. 

The Stardust-NExT mission met its goals which included observing 
surface features that changed in areas previously seen during the 
2005 Deep Impact mission; imaging new terrain; and viewing the crater 
generated when the 2005 mission propelled an impactor at the comet. 

This mission is 100 percent successful, said Joe Veverka, 
Stardust-NExT principal investigator of Cornell University, Ithaca, 
N.Y. We saw a lot of new things that we didn't expect, and we'll be 
working hard to figure out what Tempel 1 is trying to tell us. 

Several of the images provide tantalizing clues to the result of the 
Deep Impact mission's collision with Tempel 1. 

We see a crater with a small mound in the center, and it appears that 
some of the ejecta went up and came right back down, said Pete 
Schultz of Brown University, Providence, R.I. This tells us this 
cometary nucleus is fragile and weak based on how subdued the crater 
is we see today. 

Engineering telemetry downlinked after closest approach indicates the 
spacecraft flew through waves of disintegrating cometary particles 
including a dozen impacts that penetrated more than one layer of its 
protective shielding. 

The data indicate Stardust went through something similar to a B-17 
bomber flying through flak in World War II, said Don Brownlee, 
Stardust-NExT co-investigator from the University of Washington in 
Seattle. Instead of having a little stream of uniform particles 
coming out, they apparently came out in chunks and crumbled. 

While the Valentine's Day night encounter of Tempel 1 is complete, the 
spacecraft will continue to look at its latest cometary obsession 
from afar.  

This spacecraft has logged over 3.5 billion miles since launch, and 
while its last close encounter is complete, its mission of discovery 
is not, said Tim Larson, Stardust-NExT project manager at JPL. 
We'll continue imaging the comet as long as the science team can 
gain useful information, and then Stardust will get its well-deserved 
rest. 

Stardust-NExT is a low-cost mission that is expanding the 
investigation of comet Tempel 1 initiated by the Deep Impact 
spacecraft. The mission is managed by JPL for NASA's Science Mission 
Directorate in Washington. Lockheed Martin Space Systems in Denver 
built the spacecraft and manages day-to-day mission operations. 

The latest Stardust-Next/Tempel 1 images are online at:

[meteorite-list] Magnetic Attraction to Meteorites

2011-02-16 Thread Thunder Stone


Hi List:
 
I have been wondering something for a while now:
 
What types of meteorites have none (or very little) magnetic attraction to a 
neodymium magnet?
 
Lunars
Matian
  Nak
  Cha
  She – maybe slight attraction
Diogenite – some do
Aubrite
Howardite – slight
Eucrite – some may have slight attraction
CM ?
CI ?
R-chondrites
 
Are there any others?
 
Thanks
 
Greg S.

[meteorite-list] Cometary Beauty

2011-02-16 Thread Meteorites USA

Astronomy Picture of the Day: Comet Tempel 1 from Stardust-NeXT Spacecraft
No comet has ever been visited twice before. Therefore, the 
unprecedented pass of the Stardust-NeXT spacecraft near Comet Tempel 1 
earlier this week gave humanity a unique opportunity to see how the 
nucleus of a comet changes over time. Changes in the nucleus of Comet 
Tempel 1 were of particular interest because the comet was hit with an 
impactor from the passing Deep Impact spacecraft in 2005. Pictured above 
is one digitally sharpened image of Comet Tempel 1 near the closest 
approach of Stardust-NeXT. Visible are many features imaged in 2005, 
including craters, ridges, and seemingly smoother areas. Few firm 
conclusions are yet available, but over the next few years astronomers 
who specialize in comets and the understanding the early Solar System 
will be poring over these images looking for new clues as to how Comet 
Tempel 1 is composed, how the 2005 impact site now appears, and how 
general features of the comet have evolved.
