Re: [meteorite-list] Frederick MD meteorites? shown
Crazy stuff - The guy looks kinda odd, to say the least; I like the multiple eyewear. It's funny though, I ate at that restaurant this past September; the food was very good as I remember. Looks like Sikhote to me. Greg S.

Re: [meteorite-list] Frederick MD meteorites? shown
Wow! I think he may have been sniffing too much sauce at the local bar that was shown in the clip. I see he is wearing protective head gear just in case another one comes in. I like the comment that the meteor was slow by his standards clocking in at a mere 500 miles per hour and that a dragster could almost beat it. I hope this guy doesn't discover eBay. Those pieces look like Campo crystals to me.

Greetings, all, Shouldn't those meteorites be surrendered to the owner of the parking lot? (assuming the finder is not the owner) Cheers, Pete Date: Tue, 4 Jan 2011 09:46:33 -0800 From: raremeteori...@yahoo.com To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Frederick MD meteorites? shown Wow!

I like the comment that the meteor was slow by his standards clocking in at a mere 500 miles per hour and that a dragster could almost beat it. I haven't been following this thread, so I don't know what has been brought up previously. I did for some reason read this one message out of curiosity to get a pulse as to what the topic might have been about and the statement above caught my attention. I was wondering if this guy is claiming that he saw a meteor that was glowing when he clocked it at 500 miles per hour? At 500 miles per hour, that would be way too slow of a speed for a meteor to be seen at an incandescent phase. I wonder how he came about his estimation?

Re: [meteorite-list] Frederick MD meteorites? shown
If it was heading straight for him as he said, would there be any perception of movement, at all? Also, is his hair still standing on end, or is that Maryland headgear?

Re: [meteorite-list] Frederick MD meteorites? shown
If it was heading straight for him as he said, would there be any perception of movement, at all? If it was aimed directly between his eyes, there should be just some point of light get bright before extinguishing...unless he also claims he seen it as a meteor landing right next to him. Then a glowing meteor all the way to the ground would have to be quite large...like several tons or more maybe? Like I said previously, I don't know what was discussed or claimed by the observer to give much of an input.
