[meteorite-list] Interesting asteroid names

 Dear List: Beat Bernd ! that's the challenge ;-)
 McSween: Cosmic Debris and their parent planets
 Michel

OK, taking the bait ;-)

Brian Marsden, Director of the Minor Planet Center. After
long-lost asteroid 719 Albert was found again in the year
2000, he reviewed the orbital calculations and was thus
able to confirm that asteroid Albert had definitely been
rediscovered after 89 years.

He also calculated the minimum approach distance of 
asteroid 1999 AN10 (diameter ca. 0.8 - 1.8 km) to Earth
on August 7, 2027. Sit down, breathe deeply: it may come
as close as ~38,000 km.

I did not really intend to take part in this competition as I am
trying to put together some information about heavily shocked
chondrites and that ominous pseudotachylite meteorite the
Hupes are offering (see their weekly rare material ad post).

Pseudotachylite is a well-known type of impactite breccia and
occurs as abundant bodies in the Vredefort and Sudbury impact
structures.

Best wishes,

Bernd

[meteorite-list] Interesting asteroid names: 2099 Opik

2004-03-24 Thread bernd . pauli
Hello List,

After the Yarkovsky effect had been discovered around 1900
by the Russian engineer Yarkovsky, his discovery and work
were soon forgotten until this effect was remembered by Ernst
Opik in 1951. E. Opik re-derived the effect and underlined its
importance in mobilizing meter-scale asteroid debris in the solar
system.

Best wishes,

Bernd

Hi Alex and List,

You asked for more listees with their own asteroids;
How abou comets?

I independently co-discovered P/Comet 1978j = 1978XX Haneda-Campos, on
September 1st 1978 with a 5 refractor, from Durban, South Africa. It was
also independently discovered by the late japanese amateur astronomer T.
Haneda, from Fukushima, Japan, on the same date.
The comet's Period is just over 6 yrs.
According to the new comet nomenclature, it is now known as comet D/1978 R1
Haneda-Campos.

Greetings from sunny Portugal
Jos Campos
