[meteorite-list] RENAMING OF NWA 5435 L4-5 (prov.) TO NWA 3999 (prov.) IN MET. BUL.
Dear Friends and Custumers, due to a typo at the Nom.Com. quite some confusion has arisen about the NWA 5435. This number was assigned to Ray Pickard for ROCKS ON FIRE by Dr. Caroline Smith on 18-09-2008 as provisional number NWA 5435, but was deleted from the database 3 Mar 2012 by J. Grossman with no explanation mentioned to us and no replacement number offered at that time. This problem has now been solved with the help of Jeff Grossman in a swift way - Fabian Kunz keeps the (later) assigned number NWA 5435 for his Brachinite, as it is already as official listed in the database, and we agreed to change our listings for our L4-5 Chondrite to NWA 3999. Thanks Jeff and all others involved, mistakes can happen. So we now added the following information for our customers to our website, and ask owners of our 'NWA 5435' now NWA 3999 to please contact us so that we can issue a new label for their specimen: NWA 3999 L4-5 (prov.) New Breccicated Chondrite, S2, W2 PLEASE NOTE: THIS METEORITE WAS PREVIOUSLY ADVERTISED AND SOLD BY US AS NWA 5435 L4-5 (prov.). THIS LATE NAME CHANGE WAS REQUIRED AS THE NOM. COM. OF THE METEORITICAL SOCIETY DID A TYPING MISTAKE IN THEIR DATABASE WHEN THEY ISSUED A NEW NAME FOR A BRACHINITE BY USING OUR ASSIGNED NWA 5435 INSTEAD OF NWA6435. OUR NUMBER WAS THEN DELETED WITHOUT OUR KNOWLEDGE, AND AFTER A FAIR BIT OF CORRESPONDENCE AND GOOD WILL ON BOTH SIDES WE GOT NOW THIS NEW NUMBER NWA 3999 ISSUED. WE APOLOGISE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE CAUSED. I hope that I have not caused more confusion and that the meteorite finally gets official statement.

[meteorite-list] Cosmochemist Discovers Potential Solution to Meteorite Mystery
http://news.uchicago.edu/article/2013/07/08/cosmochemist-discovers-potential-solution-meteorite-mystery Cosmochemist discovers potential solution to meteorite mystery Chondrules may have formed from high-pressure collisions in early solar system By Steve Koppes University of Chicago July 8, 2013 A normally staid University of Chicago scientist has stunned many of his colleagues with his radical solution to a 135-year-old mystery in cosmochemistry. "I'm a fairly sober guy. People didn't know what to think all of a sudden," said Lawrence Grossman, professor in geophysical sciences. At issue is how numerous small, glassy spherules had become embedded within specimens of the largest class of meteorites - the chondrites. British mineralogist Henry Sorby first described these spherules, called chondrules, in 1877. Sorby suggested that they might be "droplets of fiery rain" which somehow condensed out of the cloud of gas and dust that formed the solar system 4.5 billion years ago. Researchers have continued to regard chondrules as liquid droplets that had been floating in space before becoming quickly cooled, but how did the liquid form? "There's a lot of data that have been puzzling to people," Grossman said. Grossman's research reconstructs the sequence of minerals that condensed from the solar nebula, the primordial gas cloud that eventually formed the sun and planets. He has concluded that a condensation process cannot account for chondrules. His favorite theory involves collisions between planetesimals, bodies that gravitationally coalesced early in the history of the solar system. "That's what my colleagues found so shocking, because they had considered the idea so 'kooky,'" he said. Cosmochemists know for sure that many types of chondrules, and probably all of them, had solid precursors. "The idea is that chondrules formed by melting these pre-existing solids," Grossman said. One problem concerns the processes needed to obtain the high, post-condensation temperatures necessary to heat the previously condensed solid silicates into chondrule droplets. Various astonishing but unsubstantiated origin theories have emerged. Maybe collisions between dust particles in the evolving solar system heated and melted the grains into droplets. Or maybe they formed in strikes of cosmic lightning bolts, or condensed in the atmosphere of a newly forming Jupiter. Another problem is that chondrules contain iron oxide. In the solar nebula, silicates like olivine condensed from gaseous magnesium and silicon at very high temperatures. Only when iron is oxidized can it enter the crystal structures of magnesium silicates. Oxidized iron forms at very low temperatures in the solar nebula, however, only after silicates like olivine had already condensed at temperatures 1,000 degrees higher. At the temperature at which iron becomes oxidized in the solar nebula, though, it diffuses too slowly into the previously formed magnesium silicates, such as olivine, to give the iron concentrations seen in the olivine of chondrules. What process, then, could have produced chondrules that formed by melting pre-existing solids and contain iron oxide-bearing olivine? "Impacts on icy planetesimals could have generated rapidly heated, relatively high-pressure, water-rich vapor plumes containing high concentrations of dust and droplets, environments favorable for formation of chondrules," Grossman said. Grossman and his UChicago co-author, research scientist Alexei Fedkin, published their findings in the July issue of Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta. Grossman and Fedkin worked out the mineralogical calculations, following up earlier work done in collaboration with Fred Ciesla, associate professor in geophysical sciences, and Steven Simon, senior scientist in geophysical sciences. To verify the physics, Grossman is collaborating with Jay Melosh, University Distinguished Professor of Earth & Atmospheric Sciences at Purdue University, who will run additional computer simulations to see if he can recreate chondrule-forming conditions in the aftermath of planetesimal collisions. "I think we can do it," Melosh said. Longstanding objections Grossman and Melosh are well-versed in the longstanding objections to an impact origin for chondrules. "I've used many of those arguments myself," Melosh said. Grossman re-evaluated the theory after Conel Alexander at the Carnegie Institution of Washington and three of his colleagues supplied a missing piece of the puzzle. They discovered a tiny pinch of sodium - a component of ordinary table salt - in the cores of the olivine crystals embedded within the chondrules. When olivine crystallizes from a liquid of chondrule composition at temperatures of approximately 2,000 degrees Kelvin (3,140 degrees Fahrenheit), most sodium remains in the liquid if it doesn't evaporate entirely. But despite the extreme volatility of sodium, enough of it stayed in

[meteorite-list] Mars Rover Curiosity Begins Trek Toward Mount Sharp
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?release=2013-215 Mars Rover Curiosity Begins Trek Toward Mount Sharp Jet Propulsion Laboratory July 08, 2013 PASADENA, Calif. - With drives on July 4 and July 7, NASA's Mars rover Curiosity has departed its last science target in the "Glenelg" area and commenced a many-month overland journey to the base of the mission's main destination, Mount Sharp. The rover finished close-up investigation of a target sedimentary outcrop called "Shaler" last week. On July 4, it drove 59 feet (18 meters) away from Shaler. On July 7, a second drive added another 131 feet (40 meters) on the trip toward a destination about 5 miles (8 kilometers) away, the entry to the lower layers of Mount Sharp. Mount Sharp, in the middle of Gale Crater, exposes many layers where scientists anticipate finding evidence about how the ancient Martian environment changed and evolved. In the Glenelg area, where Curiosity worked for the first half of 2013, the rover found evidence for an ancient wet environment that had conditions favorable for microbial life. This means the mission already accomplished its main science objective. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, manages the Mars Science Laboratory Project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. JPL designed and built the project's Curiosity rover. More information about Curiosity is online at http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/msl , http://www.nasa.gov/msl and http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/ .

[meteorite-list] First Mission of Space Launch System with Orion Atop it to Preview Asteroid Visit
http://www.nasa.gov/content/first-mission-of-space-launch-system-with-orion-to-preview-asteroid-visit First Mission of Space Launch System with Orion Atop it to Preview Asteroid Visit NASA July 8, 2013 Managers in NASA's Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate have initiated a formal request to change the mission plan for the agency's first flight of the Space Launch System (SLS), Exploration Mission (EM) 1 in 2017. The flight will carry an uncrewed Orion spacecraft to a deep retrograde orbit near the moon, a stable orbit in the Earth-moon system where an asteroid could be relocated as early as 2021. The 25-day mission will send Orion more than 40,000 miles beyond the moon and allow engineers to evaluate the performance of SLS and assess the systems designed to support a crew in Orion before the capsule begins carrying astronauts. The plan will provide NASA with the opportunity to align the flight more closely with the agency's mission to send humans to a relocated asteroid. The previous plan for the first test flight of the SLS heavy-lift launch vehicle was to send Orion on a 10 day mission to high-lunar orbit to evaluate the fully integrated Orion and SLS system. "We sent Apollo around the moon before we landed on it and tested the space shuttle's landing performance before it ever returned from space." said Dan Dumbacher, NASA's deputy associate administrator for exploration systems development. "We've always planned for EM-1 to serve as the first test of SLS and Orion together and as a critical step in preparing for crewed flights. This change still gives us that opportunity and also gives us a chance to test operations planning ahead of our mission to a relocated asteroid." The request will be reviewed later this summer by a range of other NASA officials. The agency announced in April a plan to find and redirect an asteroid to a stable point near the moon where astronauts can visit and study it as early as 2021. NASA's asteroid initiative leverages human and robotic exploration activities while also accelerating efforts to improve detection and characterization of asteroids. It aligns current and future work in NASA's Science, Space Technology and Human Exploration and Operations mission directorates to achieve the space goals set by the administration. Across the U.S., engineers at NASA and its contractors are making progress to develop and test Orion and SLS. Orion will first launch on a test flight in September 2014. A United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy rocket will send the spacecraft to an altitude of 3,600 miles above Earth's surface. It will reenter the atmosphere at speeds of about 20,000 mph and endure temperatures of 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit. The test flight is designed to evaluate the performance of Orion's heatshield and other systems. The SLS program currently is undergoing an extensive review process to ensure that every element of the launch vehicle can be successfully integrated. The review process, called the Preliminary Design Review, is scheduled for completion later this summer. SLS will be NASA's most capable rocket ever and enable missions to new destinations in the solar system. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] Celebrating 35 Years of Charon
http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/overview/piPerspective.php The PI's Perspective: Celebrating 35 Years of Charon A Giant Moon for the Ninth Planet Dr. Alan Stern July 5, 2013 This week the New Horizons mission team is celebrating the 35th anniversary of the discovery of Pluto's largest and "first" moon, Charon. This discovery was made in 1978 by U.S. Naval Observatory astronomers James Christy and Robert Harrington, working in Flagstaff, Ariz., and Washington, D.C. Charon, whose discovery was first announced on July 7, 1978, orbits about 19,400 kilometers (12,500 miles) from Pluto and has a diameter of about 1,207 kilometers (750 miles) - about the width of Texas. At half the diameter of Pluto, Charon is the largest moon relative to its planet in our solar system. Charon's reflective but almost colorless surface is covered by water ice, and may contain traces of ammonia or ammonium as well. Its interior is much less rocky than Pluto (which is nearly 70-percent rock). By contrast, Charon's interior exhibits a nearly 50-50 combination of rock and water ice. And unlike Pluto, Charon has no substantial atmosphere. The historic discovery of Charon ushered in the modern understanding of Pluto as both a double planet and the product of a giant collision that formed the system in much the same way as the Earth-Moon system was formed. We now know that Charon, once thought to be Pluto's only moon, orbits Pluto with at least four much smaller moons: Nix, Hydra, Kerberos and Styx, all of which, like Charon, orbit in circular paths and in Pluto's equatorial plane. >From Charon, Pluto looms large in the sky - more than 14 times as wide and 200 times as big of an area as the Earth's moon appears in our sky. And at "full Pluto," Charon's night side is about 50-percent brighter than a full moon in Earth's nighttime sky. New Horizons is on course to fly by and make the first reconnaissance of the Pluto system just two years from now, in July 2015. When it does, the spacecraft will turn these moons and their parent planet Pluto from points of light into well-mapped worlds, chart their compositions in exquisite detail, explore Pluto's atmosphere, search for other moons and rings, and make many other observations as well. We're pretty excited to see Charon explored and its appearance revealed in just two years, and hope you are too. That's it for now. Until I write again, I hope you'll keep on exploring - just as we will! __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] Comet ISON Brings Holiday Fireworks
http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/2013/24/image/a/ News Release Number: STScI-2013-24 July 2, 2013 Comet ISON Brings Holiday Fireworks ABOUT THIS IMAGE: This July 4th the solar system is showing off some fireworks of its own. Superficially resembling a skyrocket, Comet ISON is hurtling toward the Sun at a whopping 48,000 miles per hour. Its swift motion is captured in this time-lapse movie made from a sequence of pictures taken May 8, 2013, by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. At the time the images were taken, the comet was 403 million miles from Earth, between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. The movie shows a sequence of Hubble observations taken over a 43-minute span, compressed into just five seconds. The comet travels 34,000 miles in this brief video, or 7 percent of the distance between Earth and the Moon. The deep-space visitor streaks silently against the background stars. Unlike a firework, the comet is not combusting, but in fact is pretty cold. Its skyrocket-looking tail is really a streamer of gas and dust bleeding off the icy nucleus, which is surrounded by a bright, star-like-looking coma. The pressure of the solar wind sweeps the material into a tail, like a breeze blowing a windsock. As the comet warms while it moves closer to the Sun, its rate of sublimation will increase. The comet will get brighter and the tail will grow longer. The comet is predicted to reach naked-eye visibility in November.

All, You can report his profile as a "misrepresentation" (Google "report linkedin profile" for instructions), which I did. I would recommend more people report it, with links to news stories covering his conviction. His LinkedIn page makes the claim that he discovered the first north American lunar meteorite.

Re: [meteorite-list] ED fix
In "Re: [meteorite-list] ED fix" at http://www.mail-archive.com/meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com/msg113727.html Jim Wooddell wrote "What has been a very cool experience is to be hunting in Superior Valley and have them do an on deck fly over while they try to catch the little target jets (t38s ???). Very cool time out! Jim." I did both archaeological surveys and later a couple of years of geological mapping within Fort Polk in Vernon Parish, Louisiana, and the Peason Ridge area just north of it. I loved seeing the A-10 Thunderbolt II "Warthog" flying, often on the deck, around. When they did target practice in the Peason Ridge area, the firing sounded like "War of the Wells" Martians were coming. It was cool experience. Also, there were eerily silent helicopters that flew by on maneuvers. The really scary incident was a strange aerial vehicle with two huge vertical lifting fans within it and completely silent that literally floated over us one day just above the tree tops . That vehicle was enough to give me nightmares about "black helicopters." There was never a dull day working in Fort Polk and often weird stuff to observe. Of course, every day started with the morning visit to Range Control to find out where we could be and should not be.
