[meteorite-list] Draconid Meteor Shower/Incoming CME
Space Weather News for Oct. 7, 2012 http://spaceweather.com DRACONID METEOR WATCH: Earth is about to pass through a stream of debris from comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner, source of the annual Draconid meteor shower. Last year, Europeans witnessed a faint but furious outburst of 600 meteors per hour when the shower peaked. No such display is expected this year, but the Draconids are notoriously unpredictable. Northern-hemisphere sky watchers should be alert for slow-moving meteors emerging from the head of the constellation Draco the Dragon (not far from the North Star) on Sunday night, Oct 7th, through Monday morning Oct. 8th. Check http://spaceweather.com for more information and updates. INCOMING CME: A coronal mass ejection (CME) is heading for Earth. The incoming cloud is expected to deliver a glancing blow to our planet's magnetosphere on October 8th, possibly sparking auroras at high latitudes. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] Hello All, ...
Thank you all very, very much! Of course, I never saw myself as a spammer but, nevertheless, it was really shocking to see someone chose to call me a spammer! I wanted to send a personal "Thank you mail" - especially to those list members who sent private mails encouraging me to ignore such negativity but, for some unknown reason, my computer says: "Communication failed". So, again, thank you very much ... A.M. + D.P. and M.H. and quite a few others! As for B.C., please, remember that there are several hundred list members, listees, listoids, and some of them consider my posts a positive contribution to this list, others may choose a different perspective but tolerance and the voice of reason should tell you that your personal opinion is not the universal truth!

[meteorite-list] Accommodation for Tucson Gem & Mineral show
To my meteorite friends living in Tucson: I am planning to attend the Tucson show as a visitor next Feb, and now I prepare to book a hotel or rent a room for my trip. If anyone of you work on the show every year and will go to the show every morning (will bring me to the show every day), that is my best choise to rent a room from you. Any offers or recommendations will be appreciated. PS: I am a member of the meteoritical society, and good in Chiese cooking, and easy to talk with. Best regards!

Re: [meteorite-list] Fwd: Fwd: Chicken gun
Sounds like THE standard joke, in this field of the aerospace technology to me. As a young aerospace stress engineer in 1993 or 1994, I once prepared a test spec. for a bird impact test on an aircraft's windshield. The chicken had to hit at the worst case location, at worst case conditions etc. Our supplier PPG at Huntsville, Alabama conducted the test. They told me that when a test failed, the standard joke was to blame a certain guy who conducted the tests for forgetting to defrost the chicken :-) All the best, Rob L www.AsteroidChippings.com -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com [mailto:meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com] Namens cdtuc...@cox.net Verzonden: vrijdag 5 oktober 2012 17:43 Aan: meteoritelist Onderwerp: [meteorite-list] Fwd: Fwd: Chicken gun > > > Chicken Gun > > Too funny not to share!
