There are usually a number of threads going at once, like

K-belt objects.
Are there any others

A few years back there was a question on the list as
to the possible presence of volcanic rocks in
Midwestern (US) glacial moraines. I presume that this
was to help scope out potential sources of igneous
rocks which might be identified as meteorwrongs.
I asserted then, that there were no

Just curious because I recently read somewhere (maybe this list actually but
can't remember) that the CH (or CB?) chondrites may now be the best match to
a cometary origin. I think this was after Deep Impact. Anyone remember or
know more?

Hi, all,
To me, they look like common river cobble.
If they are limestone, they would be relatively soft enough to have the
corners easily chipped off until ultimately shaped into the orbs.
Judging by the included aerial photo at the ebay site, there's lots of
rivers to wash them down hill,

Yes, thank you, I myself am growing tired of being on a planet discussion

I signed up for meteorites, and meteorite related topics. Now everyone can

If we're taking votes, as long as it has to do with space, it's relative to

Keep the discussions going, especially when the only meteorite-related posts
currently on the List are ADs!

I'm looking for any information regarding the Kalkaska find (Michigan, 1947,

system, a comet can fragment into fragemnts, as they
