[meteorite-list] Possible Planetary Top 10
Hello everyone, I really enjoyed the ungrouped achondrite discussion recently and wanted to kick off something similar. What are your top few recommendations for suspected meteorites that could be planetary like Mercurian, Venusian, etc? I think it would be neat if there was an actual top 10 list or something to that effect, who knows, maybe it would propel further research on these suspects... Thanks! Doug -- Douglas L.

Team Meteorite: A little (no,a lot) off-topic, but I need some help celebrating an important personal moment. I will comment on that first, then about the last 'edition' of the meteorite-list. While I am proud to be an American and always will carry that passport, the small Central American nation of Costa Rica is where I prefer to live. I like to climb to the edge of gently erupting volcanoes, trek through deep green forest where the sky-scraping trees are the theater for a concert of rare bird song, while living among gentle people who live for adventure. The women are really hot, too. Back story - It's been twenty-nine years since I first stepped foot here, twice since 1990 that I've jumped the high hoops to become a 'Rentista' (a type of provisional resident) so I could stay here, although with stipulations. After some years of maintaining that status, one can apply to be a 'permanent resident', and its been ten months since I applied to live here forever. It's 'home' now. Were there no problems, I should have achieved this status last September. There were no problems, I just needed a bureaucrat's signature. In January I petitioned the Supreme Court to force a decision. Moments ago, this message arrived from my attorney, Lic. JJ Valerio Hello Kevin, Very good news, you are now a Permanent Resident in Costa Rica. I went to Immigration today and I got the resolution. I hope you be on time with the payments of the CCSS because we will need it to get the new Residency ID. I'm very happy about this.

[meteorite-list] Mars Rover Opportunity Update: Feb 27 - Mar 5, 2014
OPPORTUNITY UPDATE: Investigating 'Cook Haven' - sols 3589-3595, Feb. 27, 2014-Mar. 05, 2014: Opportunity is exploring 'Murray Ridge' on Solander Point, part of the rim of Endeavour Crater. The rover continues to investigate the region called 'Cook Haven.' On Sol 3589 (Feb. 27, 2014), the rover drove 19 feet (5.73 meters). The first objective of the drive was to break the rock target 'Stuart Island' with the rover wheels and image the results. That was successful. The other objective was to drive toward a new target area called, 'Cross Sound' and position the rover for some in-situ (contact) investigations. On Sol 3591 (March 1, 2014), the rover turned-in-place in order to face the intended surface targets. This was followed by documentary Panoramic Camera (Pancam) and Navigation Camera (Navcam) mosaics. On the next sol, Opportunity collected a set of Navcam atmospheric opacity (tau) measurements for the InSight project. That evening, the Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer (APXS) performed an atmospheric argon measurement. On Sol 3594 (March 4, 2014), the rover bumped forward 34 inches (86 centimeters) to reach the surface targets for subsequence investigation. As of Sol 3595 (March 5, 2014), the solar array energy production was 492 watt-hours with an atmospheric opacity (Tau) of 0.451 and an improved solar array dust factor of 0.699. Total odometry is 24.08 miles (38.75 kilometers). __ 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

On Sol 3596 (March 6, 2014), the rover moved forward to put a rock called 'Turnagain Arm,' within reach of the robotic arm. That evening, there was enough power to allow Opportunity to perform a full overnight Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer Argon integration. On Sol 3958 (March 8, 2014) activities included a Rock Abrasion Tool (RAT) brush, a Microscopic Imager mosaic, and placement of the APXS on Turnagain Arm followed by two evenings of APXS integrations. Opportunity then proceeded toward a new rock target called 'Augustine,' on Sol 3600 (March 10, 2014). However, due to a high tilt and considerable slip from being on a slope, two subsequent 'bumps' on Sols 3601 and 3602 (March 11 and March 12, 2014), were needed to get close enough to examine Augustine. As of Sol 3602 (March 12, 2014), the solar array energy production was 498 watt-hours with an atmospheric opacity (Tau) of 0.446 and a solar array dust factor of 0.694.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Digest Volume 131 Issue 19 (and a personal note)
Since you don't participate on Facebook, you have no idea what is discussed on there... With instant photos uploaded whenever you want. Have something to sell, upload a photo, on a hunting trip, upload a photo or a thousand of them into an album. Everyone can flow in real time. Last year during my Chelyabinsk hunt in Mother Russia, I could make finds and have photos and videos playing around the world in a few seconds, people were seeing my 1.2 kilo meteorite find pretty much as soon as I did, uploaded videos on the spot and my wife could see my meteorite from the other side of the world as I was picking it up. It is social media, not only to be used for gladiator politics (my favorite) or endless kittens but also scientific use as well. I was updating my google earth strew field map on the spot as finds were made and sharing it with scientists back in USA who were helping tell me where to hunt! Live. Somehow I highly doubt the NSA is really that interested in some American living in Costa Rica unless your income is being augmented via nefarious means and you like to talk about it. And NSA can access any type of electronic media, Facebook is hardly their limit. Both mediums of communication are useful. Perhaps try Facebook before you assume what is going on there.

While I am proud to be an American and always will carry that passport, the small Central American nation of Costa Rica is where I prefer to live. I like to climb to the edge of gently erupting volcanoes, trek through deep green forest where the sky-scraping trees are the theater for a concert of rare bird song, while living among gentle people who live for adventure. The women are really hot, too. Back story - It's been twenty-nine years since I first stepped foot here, twice since 1990 that I've jumped the high hoops to become a 'Rentista' (a type of provisional resident) so I could stay here, although with stipulations. After some years of maintaining that status, one can apply to be a 'permanent resident', and its been ten months since I applied to live here forever. It's 'home' now. Were there no problems, I should have achieved this status last September. There were no problems, I just needed a bureaucrat's signature. In January I petitioned the Supreme Court to force a decision. Moments ago, this message arrived from my attorney, Lic. JJ Valerio Hello Kevin, Very good news, you are now a Permanent Resident in Costa Rica. I went to Immigration today and I got the resolution. I hope you be on time with the payments of the CCSS because we will need it to get the new Residency ID. I'm very happy about this. But while I'm a mile of smiles chuckling at the intensity of 'the moment', there's more, because just before this email arrived, I read the last 'digest' of the m-list. I got sentimental. Note to Team Meteorite - For privacy reasons (see 'NSA'), I don't participate in FaceBook. I was immediately spell-bound reading Alan Rubin's riveting discussion of the origins of CK's, and his conclusion of no separate parent body. Alan has helped me many times during days past when I contributed to 'Meteorite' and that help is not forgotten. I read his article twice to make sure I understood it. Fantastic! I doubt that such work is found on Facebook. I have not yet had the privilege of working or exchanging messages with Carl Agee, who's attitude (and love?) of mets I perceive to be like some collector-genius. His dissertation of 'UNG's' and Mercury meteorites was like everything else he contributes to this venue, it increased my knowledge in the field. Perfect. I doubt that such work is found on Facebook. Mike G has evolved to become a 'voice', an 'opinion leader' and tonight he asks relevant questions that merge the lines between collectors and researchers about pairings of a strange orphan met 'without a home' wondering why it is so darn expensive! Super Sonny shares another one of his incredible US finds, a scattering of OC's using dice in situ for size comparison -he rolled all Lucky Sevens , not a 'Snake Eyes' in sight- and Paul Gessler offers a witty comment calling it 'desert pavement'. Bob Verish, Tom Randall and even 'Steve Arnold (Chicago) make guest appearances 'this issue', not to forget relative 'newbie' Shawn Alan. But the list would be lifeless without the spirit of Herr Bernd Pauley, the guiding light of meteorite collectors worldwide. And here he is tonight, all 69 years of him, sitting in his rocker, a comforter in his lap, wife

However, I have since become a big fan of both, especially FB. It is great for networking. I have met some good people who I now consider friends, and I have also met some new sources of material. A few of my FB friends are traders and we swap material. It's been a boon for business as well because it is a great promotional tool. A couple of tips for new meteorite people on FB : 1) search the groups for meteorite-related groups. There are many, and some are not so good, but others are very good for discussions and/or sales. 2) find a few meteorite people who have large friend lists that are visible. You can farm those lists for new contacts and send friend requests to them. Many dealers, including myself, keep the visibility of their friends list on private to prevent this. But if you look around, you can find the meteorite dealers and collectors this way. 3) If you intend on selling on FB, be very up-front about that fact to people who friend you. Many people do not want to see ads. I oblige those people by removing them from my friend's list, or warning them up front that I do post ads in addition to other normal (non-commercial) posts.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Digest Volume 131 Issue 19 (and a personal note)
Hi Friends, Listees, and Innocent Bystanders, I would hope that nobody is suggesting that Art's Met-List and Facebook should compete with each other or that they are mutually exclusive. Instead, they are like chocolate and peanut butter. They go well together. It may not be for everybody and nobody should feel like they are missing something if they do not care for that type of online experience. How many of us still enjoy a good old fashioned book? I do. I will take a paper book over an electronic e-book any day. I still like those dwindling dealers who send out snail mail offerings. Who doesn't like getting that envelope in the mail with a list of the latest specimens? It's a dying thing in the digital age. Our grandkids will not know what the tick of a mechanical clock sounds like. Winding a wrist-watch. The national anthem and test pattern sound when a TV station goes off the air at 3:00am. Those are all things that are going quietly into that long night of fading memories in white-haired heads. I will miss those things. I do not want Art's Met-List to ever go away. I want it to continue going forever. I want his kids and grandkids to take it over and keep it running. Some of you probably will not reciprocate, but I want to keep knowing all of you, hearing about your latest collection acquisitions, sharing Tucson stories, solving a good meteorite mystery (Katol anyone?), and good-natured fooling around (not the malicious stuff). Sure, we can do all of that on Facebook, but it's not the same. Sure, digital MP3 is better than vinyl, but it's not the *same*. Facebook is great for certain things. If you somebody doesn't like it, fine. The Met-List is great for certain things - if somebody does not like the Met-List, then I have a problem with that. LOL. Seriously, I do. Love or hate, Facebook, that's OK. But always love the Met-List. Even those of you who don't like me, I'd rather be here with all of you, than see this List ever go away. ;) If the NSA wants to eavesdrop on me. Fine. They can listen till their ears fall off. They can read my emails and messages until their eyes pop out. All they will hear is me bitching about how I cannot afford a big specimen of this meteorite or that meteorite. They will hear me conjecture about what petrologic type a new fall might be (Katol anyone?). They will hear exactly how much I paid for that batch of unclassified stones. They will see who I buy micromounts from. I could go on and on, but I won't here. But I do in private, and the NSA would be bored to death. My private ramblings might drive an analyst to a migraine and a hard drink. Ok, I am off my soapbox. Please continue with the regularly-scheduled programming. :) Best regards, MikeG -- - Web - http://www.galactic-stone.com Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/galacticstone Twitter - http://twitter.com/galacticstone Pinterest - http://pinterest.com/galacticstone - On 3/14/14, Michael Farmer m...@meteoriteguy.com wrote: Since you don't participate on Facebook, you have no idea what is discussed on there...

It is social media, not only to be used for gladiator politics (my favorite) or endless kittens but also scientific use as well. I was updating my google earth strew field map on the spot as finds were made and sharing it with scientists back in USA who were helping tell me where to hunt! Live.

Re: [meteorite-list] Photos of Dr. Laurence Garvie and Myself teaching meteorite basics.
Hi Anne and List, Any Facebook page (personal or institutional) that is set on public is visible to the entire world (including most search engines). Anyone can view a public FB page, whether that person is a FB member or not. However, if a privacy settings of that page are set to friends only, then only a FB member who is also a friend can see that page or photo. That is why NASA's page is visible to anyone, member or not. Ruben's photos were likely set to friends only and therefore you would need to be both a FB member and on Ruben's approved list of friends. Such links will appear broken or blocked if clicked by a non-member. Anne, you can filter out the trash by looking for a link near the top of the postings section on the NASA page (or any institutional page). You will see a little drop-down link with the options of see posts by page and see posts by everyone (exact syntax may vary slightly). Click on see posts by page and you will see the official posts by page administrators. Otherwise, you see posts by every Tom, Dick, and Harry - which greatly increases the noise to signal ratio.

Re: [meteorite-list] Photos of Dr. Laurence Garvie and Myself teaching meteorite basics.
Thank you, this is helpful. Now for another question: Is the owner of a page, NASA in that particular case, able to clean up, so to speak, his page, and delete anything he/she does not want associated with him/her? For instance, if I had a Facebook page I would not want to see posts by some of our most famous crack-pots tacked on it. Could I erase them and still have a public page? I suppose my question boils down to: How much control does one have over a Facebook page? Anne M.

Re: [meteorite-list] Photos of Dr. Laurence Garvie and Myself teaching meteorite basics.
Hi Anne and Listees, Yes, you can control who can post on your own page or a page you are the administrator of. You can even set the permissions so that only you can post and nobody else. Or, you can let only friends post. Or, (if you are brave) you can let the entire world post. It is best to only let your friends post and then keep an eye on those. If somebody posts something offensive, you can delete that post and you can also block/ban the person who posted it. For example, our good friend Mr. G. Lindfors is on Facebook. You can preemptively go and block him so you will never see him on FB, ever. Or, wait until he sends you that first batch of photos and then block him. It's easy to block people on FB, just a couple of clicks. The NASA page, if it is truly official, should have someone policing the posts and deleting the offensive or off-topic material. It's usually one or more volunteer admins/moderators that do this. There are many NASA pages on FB, and some of those are unofficial, so those may contain anything. FB, like the internet in general, is some good and some bad.

Thank you, this is helpful. Now for another question: Is the owner of a page, NASA in that particular case, able to clean up, so to speak, his page, and delete anything he/she does not want associated with him/her? For instance, if I had a Facebook page I would not want to see posts by some of our most famous crack-pots tacked on it. Could I erase them and still have a public page? I suppose my question boils down to: How much control does one have over a Facebook page? Dear Anne You have full controll of Your page. You can hide or errase posts, coments, remove members. Everything that is necesary to take control of Your personal profile or group. You can let others post on Your page or limit it only for Your posts, so I think its enough. I have more than 300 members on my Polandmet group and never have any problems with nasty coments, spam or bad behavior. And I accept anyone who want to join my group and follow my news.

Re: [meteorite-list] -- SPAM -- Proud Tom?
Hi Bernd all, I don't recall anything he ever said that was actually offensive - but such things (humorous pokes) can oft be perceived by the pokee(s) As offensive. On the other hand - I may have forgotten actual statements That were objectively offensive. As for supposition that I know who the man behind the man is Are all mistaken. At one time I tried with a considerable degree for Considerable duration to find out who this clever devil was, but eventually Realized it was more fun not knowing - and also realized it allowed me To be free of having to be evasive or lie about the secret identity of... Anyway, wish he would come back. Proud Tom, where are you!? Michael On 3/13/14 3:42 PM, Met.
