[meteorite-list] Geminid-time lapse catch

[Linton Rohr via Meteorite-list]

Greetings listoids,
Saw this posted in a Utah astronomy forum, but it was captured at one of my 
old SoCal observing sites.
Pretty nice work, though the meteor is simply 'burning up', as most do... 
not 'exploding'.

Re: [meteorite-list] Prices for SouthWest Dry Lake Finds??? Old Women Meteorite

[Linton Rohr via Meteorite-list]

Hi folks,

I just came across this old thread regarding the Old Woman's "potential 
sisters". I'm wondering if there's been any further developments on their 
recovery.


We stopped by the Barstow Discovery Center last week, intending to visit the 
main mass again, but had forgotten that they're closed on Mondays. Argh.


Next time for sure!

Hi Carl! I agree it is good where it's at.  I really appreciated the
opportunity to touch and see the
Old Woman Meteorite.
The girl in the office gave me the evil eye when I tried to roll it out
of the BLM building!
She thought I was joking around!  ;)

If there truly are additional pieces of the old gal, some one ought to
go get it and re-unite them.
I think UCLA should be jumping all over this with a vengeance. Funds
could be raised to retrieve these.
Russia would do it, I bet!

I volunteer to be part of the ground crew and donate money to help make
it happen by a qualified organization

Won't believe it until I see pictures.  Hiding something like this is
nuts!  I am mean really.

Now back to watching epoxy cure!
I need to call you next week.

Jim

is on display in California for tourists to appreciate.

Hey Adam and list


Not too many peoplehave the resources to fight the federal government.

Just talk to theminers that lost the Old Woman meteorite.

With the Old Women Meteorite a second piece has been found. A third 
piece
has also been found wedged under a large boulder half exposed. I have 
tried

to get permission to remove the meteorite. I was told that the meteorite
would be confiscated if recovered and best to leave it alone. This would 
be

a great case to challenge in court.

Re: [meteorite-list] Salt Lake City fireball images?

[Linton Rohr via Meteorite-list]

Howdy Marc,

I forwarded your inquiry to the Utah Astronomy mailing list, which should 
give you pretty good odds of locating the image(s). I'll forward any replies 
I might get.


I hadn't yet moved here and missed that bolide, but saw a comparable one out 
my bedroom windows, on October 2, 2014. Awesome.

Howdy all

Back on 18 Nov 2009 there was a huge bolide over Salt Lake City, UT:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJFejgd9bSE

The following morning, locals reported seeing high-altitude dust
lingering over the city.  At the time I figured it was a coincidence, but
in retrospect I think the dust very well may have been debris from the
fireball.

Does anyone have any pictures of the dust?  I recall that one was passed
around a bit, but I can¹t find it now.  I¹d like to use the image in a
science presentation, and will (of course) give credit for the image to
the owner.

Cheers,
Marc Fries

Re: [meteorite-list] Creston new fall prices

[Linton Rohr via Meteorite-list]

Aloha folks,
All this talk about new falls, L6's, etcetera, got me curious...

There's 158 falls listed in the Met Bull for the USA. So California has it's 
"fair share", though for it's size and population, one might expect more. 
Did anyone mention that Novato was an L6?
Texas is a big state - except to Alaskans - and has 12 falls to it's name. 4 
of those were L6's, including... Ash Creek.

Arizona has 3 falls, as many of you know, and Holbrook is an L/LL6.
Colorado has 6 falls , with an L6, Denver, and an LL6, Elbert.
Nevada only has 1 fall, and it was an L6, Battle Mountain.
And only one fall here in Utah, but it was a diogenite, Garland, back in 
1950. Woo-hoo!


I didn't want to tally all 50 states, but I scanned through the 158 USA 
falls and it seemed like a fairly even distribution. Perhaps the northern 
states were lacking somewhat. Alaska has none. I imagine there's been a few, 
but no one saw them. Which leaves us with the age-old question: If a meteor 
falls in the forest, but nobody sees it...

A year ago tonight, my wife and I witnessed a dazzling fireball here in
Torrey. I posted a report here, and noted that a few in the SLC area had
seen it heading this way. I've expanded on it a bit for a stargazing column
I've been writing for our little local paper. I'll post it below, just for
fun. I'd love to hear more from others who saw it.

Insider Stargazing Tips

Brilliant Utah fireball – October 2, 2014, revisited

I’ve spent a lot of hours outside, on a lot of nights, over many years,
looking at the sky at all hours of the night. Over those years I’ve seen
hundreds, if not thousands of meteors. Some were bright and some were dim,
but they’re always a joy to see. After I began collecting meteorites and
learning more about them, the meteor sightings became even more enjoyable.
There’s something fascinating about holding a piece of space in your hand.
But as I read stories about fireball sightings, or sometimes watched online
videos, I always felt a little envious. I needed to see one myself.
Finally, on October 2 of last year, my time came. It was truly amazing!
I shared it with friends at the time, but I wasn’t yet writing this column.
So though my words cannot do it justice, I’ll attempt to recount the
experience now - on its anniversary - so that you might envision the
spectacular event.
I had gotten up at 4:00 and was lying there, about to fall back to
sleep, when my wife Karen started shouting “LOOK!” When I opened my eyes,
the entire sky out our ample, northeast-facing windows was dazzling white!
The pinon and juniper trees were lit up like it was noon. A moment later, a
large, white, slow-moving fireball came into view at the top of our windows.
I estimated it to be at least half the diameter of the moon and it had a
long trail behind it. Karen described the tail as having an “electric
blue-green tint”. It may have just looked white to me because my pupils hadn’t
adjusted yet. Then it morphed into an orange fireball, with undulating
flames trailing out perhaps 3 degrees (six full moon widths) behind it! A
few small chunks fell from it, but for the most part, it remained intact
until it cooled into dark flight, which means the atmospheric friction had
slowed it down enough that it no longer glowed. The whole show lasted about
5 or 10 magical seconds, which will remain burned into my memory forever.
I usually compare bright meteors to Venus, but this one was more like
the sun! It was traveling from N/NW to E/SE and descending at about a 5 to
10 degree angle. It appeared to be right over the northern end of Capitol
Reef N.P., but was probably much further away... possibly over toward Moab
or even western Colorado. In fact, when I filed my report, I saw that a few
people way over in central Colorado had seen it, too. A couple early morning
astronomers in Salt Lake City reported seeing it heading our way. And I did
hear from a couple other local residents who also witnessed the spectacle,
but would love to know if anyone in Hanksville did. Or Bluff, Blanding, and
so on.
One thing that really amazes me is this: the farther away it actually
was, the more massive it must have been to appear so large from here! Most
‘shooting stars’ we see are only the size of a grain of sand, or perhaps a
pea, and they burn up long before they could ever reach the ground. Not this
one!
It took quite a while for us to calm down enough to get back to sleep.
Early in the morning, I wrote up the story and posted it to meteorite and
astronomy forums. I hoped that some of my meteor

of Utah by my reckoning, lies one or more rocks from space, still waiting to
be found.

Hi all,

I just purchased a new 8 kilo iron meteorite found near Licking,
Missouri. I wasn't going to say much just yet but since someone
already posted it on FB I figured I'd just post it here too.

On Monday, Dr Laurence Garvie (ASU) will begin classification work on
this medium octahedrite iron.

I'd like to sell it intact but I may cut it and sell slices, not sure.

See it here.

Re: [meteorite-list] Does anyone buy entire meteorite colletions?

[Linton Rohr via Meteorite-list]

Hmm... interesting topic.
I started out somewhat slowly, but soon went overboard with new 
acquisitions. For me, anyway. I've begun to thin out my collection a bit, 
but I'm certainly not ready to give it all up yet. Still, I need to strike a 
reasonable balance. I want to retain a respectable collection, but I don't 
want to leave my wife a big problem when I'm gone.
For the same reasons, I've begun to sell off some of my excess astronomy 
equipment. And there's certainly some 'excess' there!

Stuff. You can't take it with you!

Hi Don,

I know several dealers that purchase meteorite collections.
Personally, I have purchased one or two within the last year and am
always looking to buy more. However, remember that meteorites are not
selling as well as they did in the past, therefore, a dealer can't
overpay. If you have realistic wholesale prices - as would need to be
the case - I am interested. Remember that I make a living buying and
selling meteorites so there would need to be sufficient meat on the
bone to make it worth my investment and time.

Having said that, if someone contacts me with a collection but wants
retail prices - or close to it - I usually won't offend them by
sending a lower offer.

Five years ago Martian and Lunar meteorites were expensive. Today I
can sell them for $125 Martian or $190 Lunar per gram, meaning -  in
bulk from the finder they are pretty inexpensive. So, if you have that
type of material in your collection purchased five to ten years ago
you would probably have paid $300 - $700 per gram at least, and you'd
lose money reselling today. Meanwhile rare falls would likely have
increased in value.

Just my thoughts...

As with Cosmos 2495 last year, I spent several hours this morning pulling

from a dozen radars within range of last night's reentry. Unlike bolides of 
late,
reentries have been showing up great on radar, and this one was no

I don't know if the CZ-4B rocket body is large enough to generate debris

Space Weather News for Feb. 24, 2015
http://spaceweather.com

Last night, Feb. 23-24, observers across the western half of North America 
witnessed a spectacular cluster of bright lights in the sky.  It was the 
re-entry and disintegration of a Chinese rocket body.  Coincidentally, a 
geomagnetic storm was in progress at the time and more than one photographer 
caught the rocket's debris cutting across curtains of Northern Lights.

Hello All,

Saturday morning we landed in Phoenix on delayed flights due to the storm 
and didn't make it to Tucson until 3:30 AM. After sleeping in we eventually 
made our way to the Inn Suites around 2:00 PM enjoying the pouring rain and 
flooding. Being an experienced show attendee, I was able to 'talk' my way 
through the blocked hotel parking area and found a spot 10 feet from the 
covered walkway.


We spent the next three hours visiting with old friends, meeting new ones 
and finally meeting a few 'Facebook' friends I have never met in person. 
That night we met with close friends from out of state for dinner and 
enjoyed great seafood and Margaritas... Awesome first day of the show!


Yesterday, after a relaxed morning of sleeping in again, we went to a couple 
show rooms and I bought two nice diogenites, a CM2 and a gorgeous 
howardite... We later met with friends for fantastic southwest grilled 
seafood and delicious pizza while watching the Super Bowl, fun times were 
had by all.


Today is another relaxed start of the day and more meteorite 'Fun  
Friends'...


Looking forward to meeting up more peeps!

If Kansas has 143 meteorites, then that is 0.00174 meteorites per square

[meteorite-list] brilliant Utah fireball!!!

[Linton Rohr via Meteorite-list]

Greetings all,
I was treated to my best fireball ever last night, by a wide margin! I had 
got up at 4:00 and was lying there, about to fall asleep, when Karen started 
shouting to look. When I opened my eyes, the entire sky out our large, 
N/NE-facing windows was dazzling white! A moment later, a large, white, 
slow-moving fireball came into view at the top of our view.  I estimated it 
to be at least half the diameter of the moon and it had a long trail behind 
it, which Karen says had a green tint. Then it morphed into an orange 
fireball, with undulating flames trailing out perhaps 3 degrees behind it! A 
few small chunks fell from it, but for the most part, it remained intact 
until it cooled into dark flight. The whole show lasted about 5 or 6 
seconds, which will remain burned into my memory forever.
I usually compare bright meteors to Venus, but this one was more like the 
sun! It was traveling from N/NW to E/SE and descending at about a 5 to 10 
degree angle. It appeared to be right over Capitol Reef N.P., but was 
probably much further away... possibly over toward Moab or even western 
Colorado.
I'll be filing an AMS report on it and I'm hoping a lot of other people saw 
it.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Did my ad come through?



I sent an ad out yesterday but did not get a return email. Did it go out
into the ether or was it actually received by met-list members?
Art, is there something I need to do to make sure I receive my own email
like in the old days?
Best,
Mendy

Just sent Mike a note. Thanks for the info, Ruben.
Sure doesn't sound good, but I pray they take good care of him and he 
recovers soon.

PrayersAppreciated




Hi all,

I stopped by to see our friend Mike Miller today at the hospital
(KRMC) in Kingman, AZ.

He's completely sedated and on a breathing machine. I was told that
he's been in ICU for a few days and that doctors are somewhat baffled
as to what has happened. Something is causing fluid build up in his
lungs that is making it impossible for him to breathe unassisted. He
entered the hospital on Wednesday evening due to pains in his chest
and back but within hours had to be put on a ventilator to breathe.

Mikes daughters (Ashley, and Melissa) work for him and will be
checking his email. If you'd like to wish Mike well I'm sure he'd
appreciate it. Here is his email.  meteoritefin...@gmail.com

Rock On!
