Good Morning List Members,
Is it too early to ask when the Tucson event will be in 2007? I'd like to

Thanks Peter,
I found the picture doing a web search. It had no description other than
it's weight.
Best wishes,
Michael Johnson
From the Tanzania homepage:
Mesurant plus de 3 m de long, et pesant plus de 15 tonnes, la
météorite de Mbozi (sur la route de Mbeya) est la troisième plus
grande météorite du monde. Découverte en 1942.
Translation: More than 3 meters long, more than 15 t, the 3rd largest
in the world.
Peter was quick enough to say: Mbosi, Tanzania, 1930

I concur but Buchwald says its estimated weight is 16 tons. The
main mass pictured in the meteorite quiz is a protected monument.
It seems Meteorites A to Z is correct - as always! - with the date
of discovery:
