Re: [meteorite-list] LPSC 43 - Any big news or unexpected meteoritestories?
Mike... Is there anything new about Tissint, or any other meteorite that has emerged at this year's conference? there was an oral session on New Martian Meteorites, and the lead paper described Tissint (http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2012/pdf/2510.pdf). but that's it re: Tissint. elsewhere, I chased down a couple of papers alluding to specific comets capable of dropping meteorites, but the modeling is (IMHO) incomplete. so you'll just have to settle for LPSC results having to do with planets! ;-) http://www.skyandtelescope.com/news/March-Madness-on-Mercury-143756146.html clear skies, Kelly J.

Re: [meteorite-list] LPSC 43 - Any big news or unexpected meteoritestories?
Hi Mike and Kelly: There were several sessions on the Dawn mission. Unfortunately, I missed many of them on Friday. However, what was of most interest to me is the likelihood that the dark areas on Vesta are the remnants of low velocity impacts by carbonaceous asteroids. Hopefully over the next few months, there will be some more news releases/publications on this. Larry PS Still not happy with calling Vesta a planet. Mike...

Re: [meteorite-list] LPSC 43 - Any big news or unexpected meteoritestories?
Hi Richard all, We already have meteorites representing this possible scenario with numerous Howardites containing carbonaceous clasts. Have a look at this piece I got from Edwin Patrick Thompson about 6 months ago... beautiful material: http://meteorites.com.au/images/NWA-6695-Howardite-3.7g.jpg Cheers, Jeff -Original Message- From: meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com [mailto:meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com] On Behalf Of Richard Montgomery Sent: Monday, 26 March 2012 11:22 AM To: lebof...@lpl.arizona.edu; Kelly Beatty Cc: 'meteorite-list' Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] LPSC 43 - Any big news or unexpected meteoritestories?
