[meteorite-list] Stolen Sikhote Alin meteorite

2015-10-07 Thread Martin Goff via Meteorite-list
Hi all,

I am sad to have to report that one of my Sikhote Alin specimens was
taken from one of our recent BIMS displays. It is a fantastic oriented
shield weighing 50.4 grams. Please see photos of the specimen on my
website at the link below and let me know if you see it or are offered
it for sale.

Cheers

Martin

[meteorite-list] Water on Mars?

2015-10-07 Thread E.P. Grondine via Meteorite-list
Hi all - 

I am NOT following the Mars imaging suite parameters closely, 
but I have a question for your consideration:

Do the new images really demonstrate water on Mars, 
or could they instead be showing the yearly cycle of 
hydrocarbons delivered to Mars by cometary impact?

In all of the press releases, I have seen no mention of 
Nick Hoffman, who pointed out these streaks years ago, 
and was the first to do so, to my knowledge.

He tied them to clathrates.
