Re: [meteorite-list] Aussie Meteor and Potential Meteorite Fall with multiplesonics reports. Request for comment on photo

Hi Dirk

Does this photo look legit to experts on this list? Please email me your 
opinions on the photo; thank you in advance. 


I am no photography expert, but the image looks photo-shoped to me

In Australia the sun rises in the East and sets in the West, 

now if the Sun is the object in the photo on the left then why at 6:30pm AEST 
would the Sun be setting in the East?

caption on image

Flaming object falling from the sky (bottom right of photo) seen looking east 
from Mount Isa about 6:30pm AEST on May 15. (Contributed:Virginia Hills )

I think the photo is a fake

Kind Regards

[meteorite-list] Old Women Meteorite additional piece

2014-05-23 Thread Paul Gessler via Meteorite-list
The additional frag wedged under the original Old Women Meteorite location 
looked to be nothing more than a heavily stained
terrestrial rock that was leached onto from above for however many thousands 
of years.

[meteorite-list] NASA Invites Public to Select Favorite Moon Image for Lunar Orbiter Anniversary Collection

2014-05-23 Thread Ron Baalke via Meteorite-list

NASA Invites Public to Select Favorite Moon Image for Lunar Orbiter Anniversary 
Collection

NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) will celebrate five years in 
orbit June 18. To celebrate the anniversary and LRO's many scientific 
contributions, NASA invites the public to select a favorite orbiter image of 
the moon for the cover a special image collection.

'The Moon as Art' collection gives the public the opportunity to see the 
moon as others have seen it for centuries - as an inspirational muse -
but this time from the perspective of being in orbit with a series of 'eyes' 
that see in different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, said Brooke 
Hsu, science education specialist at the Lunar and Planetary 
Institute/Universities Space Research Association in Greenbelt, Maryland.

The public can vote on the final cover image from five possible candidates 
selected because of their beauty and/or scientific value by orbiter mission 
team members. The winning cover image will be announced June 18 with the 
release of the full Moon as Art collection of 24 images.

Voting begins Friday and will close June 6. The public can vote at:

http://lro.gsfc.nasa.gov/MoonArt 

The finalist images are titled:
-- Starry Night
-- Linne Crater
-- Clerke Crater
-- Diviner North Pole
-- Tycho Central Peak

LRO launched from Florida on June 18, 2009. After a four-day journey, the 
orbiter successfully entered lunar orbit June 23. In the five years since, 
LRO has brought the world astounding views of the lunar surface and a 
plethora of exciting science data.

LRO has been a remarkable mission with discoveries that have given us 
insight into solar system history and the inner workings of the moon, said 
John Keller, LRO project scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in 
Greenbelt, Maryland. After five years, LRO continues to make ground breaking 
discoveries.

LRO is managed by Goddard for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA 
Headquarters in Washington.

MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER HIRISE IMAGES
May 22, 2014

o What Gullies Can Say  
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_027989_1425

  Right past the sharp, but warped rim of this ancient impact crater 
  are deposits of winter frost, which show up as blue in enhanced color.

o The Busy Flank of Arsia Mons  
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_031944_1790

  This observation shows an incredible diversity of ancient lava tubes 
  and impact craters filled with sediment on the flank of Arsia Mons.

o At the Edge of a Polar Cap
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_035926_2640

  Formative down-slope winds descending on Mars' North Polar ice cap 
  likely play an important role in transporting sediment.

o Global Eyes on an Impact Prize
  http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_036059_1835

  Finding a new dark spot with the Mars Color Imager, HiRISE can 
  literally zoom in to show better details of a new impact crater, an 
  example of coordination among science teams.

The possibility of viewing a meteor storm is exciting, accented by the fact 
that it's a one time only deal. My observation station is set up. Lawn chair, 
beverage table, mosquito spray, etc. High hopes for an extreme light show but 
any appearance will be rewarding!

Re: [meteorite-list] Mike Miller - Good News!

Hi all,

Good News!

I was just contacted by Melissa (Mike's Daughter) and she informed me
that Mike was just moved out of ICU. I'm sure he's drained as 10 days
in critical condition can't be too fun. However, he's doing better now
and hopefully will go home sometime soon.

I'll see him this weekend and let him know of all the nice messages
I've received from many of you.

For anyone not already aware, there is a smart phone app called GoogleSkyMap 
which in conjunction with your internal GPS and motion sensors, allows you to 
point in any direction and see sky charts right on your phone.  Free for 
android at Google's Playstore or for the iPhone's Apple Store.

 I am hearing rumors of 800+ an hour.
