There is another TV report with new footage about the fall from today's 1 pm 
news of the French channel TF1:

http://videos.tf1.fr/jt-13h/une-meteorite-sur-la-maison-de-madame-comette-6756763.html

Enjoy, even if you don't understand French!

I just found out that there are interesting similarities between the last 
French fall in February 2002 (Alby sur Chéran, Haute Savoie, France) and this 
one:

This is said in the Bulletin about Alby sur Chéran:

http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/metbull.php?sea=Francesfor=placesants=falls=valids=stype=containslrec=50map=gebrowse=country=Allsrt=namecateg=Allmblist=Allrect=phot=snew=0pnt=Normal%20tablecode=458

stone with black shiny fusion crust was found on March 22 in the roof of a 
building, in a hole in the insulating material. Water was first observed 
leaking from the ceiling inside the building at 8:30 am on March 18, 2002. 
The stone had broken into 2 fragments (238.9 g and 13 g) upon impact.

- found in the insulation material of a roof because water was leaking through
- meteorite has broken into two fragments

The Draveil meteorite was also found in the insulation material of the roof, 
broke into one bigger fragment of 87 g and a few smaller ones of 18 g, making 
it 105 g altogether, and was discovered because of leaking water in the house.

By the way, Soltmany was also a 'roof hitter'...

Let's go out and check our roofs... ;-)

Hi Fresh Fall Fans!

(say that ten times fast)

This unofficial fall would be called Draveil for discussion purposes.
From what I could gather on the translated stories, it fell on
September 9, 2011 and struck a home while the family was away. Is
there a known fireball associated with this one, or any video/radar?

I updated the Recent Falls page here - 
http://www.galactic-stone.com/pages/falls

I think France should be a little friendlier to hunt than Kenya. Stay
safe folks and good luck! Bring home the stones! :)

Best regards and happy huntings,

MikeG

Some information about the second stone (205,9 g) which fell in Draveil from 
today's Communiqué de presse of the
Museum d’Histoire Naturelle et de l’Universite Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC):

http://public.adequatesystems.com/pub/attachment/137704/02371925839478791318253422644-mnhn.fr/CP_MeteoriteDraveil_10102011.pdf?id=518655

Hi Mike,

    Hopefully this new fall will not be as dangerous to chase as Thika 
was! :)

remember the stories about the Britanny meteor and possible meteorites (which 
have still not been found, btw)?

Private meteorite hunters are unfortunately not welcome in France these days... 
:-(

Here is another article (with a stock photo of an iron meteorite (not the real 
one, I guess))

http://www.france24.com/fr/20111009-mme-comette-trouve-une-meteorite-le-toit-son-pavillon

http://translate.google.de/translate?hl=desl=frtl=enu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.france24.com%2Ffr%2F20111009-mme-comette-trouve-une-meteorite-le-toit-son-pavillon

Around 100 grams in fragments of a chondrite have been found, the biggest 
weighs 88 grams.

Best wishes

Martin

Hi Rob and List,

This is good news. The world is short on falls this year, as compared
to the statistical average over the previous 10 years.

Hopefully this new fall will not be as dangerous to chase as Thika was! :)

My guess is that it is an H Chondrite judging from the nearly immediate 
oxidation.  It displays rust almost as quickly as Peekskill.

Dear list members,

there might have been a meteorite fall near Paris. Alain Carion must
know if it's real or not.

2011-10-09 Thread karmaka
Here you can see a TV report (France 3, Paris edition of this evening) in which 
you can see the fragments,
A. Carion and the proud owner of the meteorite:

http://info.francetelevisions.fr/video-info/index-fr.php?id-categorie=JOURNAUX_LES_EDITIONS_REGIONALES_PARIS_ILE_DE_FRANCE_1920

Choose this edition:   J/T 19/20 Paris Ile-de-France du 09/10/2011

It starts after 55 seconds running time.

Enjoy!

Yes, Adam, it is an H chondrite.
Alain Carion confirmed this in the TV report

My guess is that it is an H Chondrite judging from the nearly immediate 
oxidation.  It displays rust almost as quickly as Peekskill.

2011-10-09 Thread karmaka
I just found out that there are interesting similarities between the last 
French fall in February 2002 (Alby sur Chéran, Haute Savoie, France) and this 
one:

This is said in the Bulletin about Alby sur Chéran:

http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/metbull.php?sea=Francesfor=placesants=falls=valids=stype=containslrec=50map=gebrowse=country=Allsrt=namecateg=Allmblist=Allrect=phot=snew=0pnt=Normal%20tablecode=458

stone with black shiny fusion crust was found on March 22 in the roof of a 
building, in a hole in the insulating material. Water was first observed 
leaking from the ceiling inside the building at 8:30 am on March 18, 2002. The 
stone had broken into 2 fragments (238.9 g and 13 g) upon impact.

- found in the insulation material of a roof because water was leaking through
- meteorite has broken into two fragments

The Draveil meteorite was also found in the insulation material of the roof, 
broke into one bigger fragment of 87 g and a few smaller ones of 18 g, making 
it 105 g altogether, and was discovered because of leaking water in the house.

By the way, Soltmany was also a 'roof hitter'...

Let's go out and check our roofs... ;-)

Martin

PS: Yes, Mike G., France IS very friendly!

Hi Fresh Fall Fans!

(say that ten times fast)

This unofficial fall would be called Draveil for discussion purposes.
From what I could gather on the translated stories, it fell on
September 9, 2011 and struck a home while the family was away. Is
there a known fireball associated with this one, or any video/radar?

I updated the Recent Falls page here - 
http://www.galactic-stone.com/pages/falls

I think France should be a little friendlier to hunt than Kenya. Stay
safe folks and good luck! Bring home the stones! :)

Best regards and happy huntings,

MikeG
