Hi all:
I seem to get into trouble no matter what I say. Yes, I keep promising myself
to buy the book.
My response to Darren responded to the article he referred to which talked
about comet showers lasting thousands of years or more. I assumed that they
were referring to the long-held theory
Hi George and List,
I'm looking for any information regarding the Kalkaska find (Michigan, 1947,
medium octahedrite). An image of the main mass or perhaps its location would
be helpful. It's a stretch I'm sure, but you never know.
Here are some passages from Buchwald with regard
to the Kalkaska
Hi,
Well one thing is certain, the definition of what a comet actually is,
is changing very quickly, what used to be considered 'a dirty snowball'
is now looking more like a snowy dirtball, (with hard bits and soft
bits). 'Comets' seem to have a range of densities and types, so how
would we
Wow! Thanks to all of you for your help. I think I need to be brought up
to speed on database material. Besides Rocks From Space and a few other
amatuer must-haves, what kinds of catalogued data should I have so I don't
have to come to the list every time I want to research a meteorite?
Hi all:
Defending Tim Swindle and Humberto Campins. I have known them for years and
they are very conservative scientists. Their work is good and they are well-
respected scientists. They do not go off (too often) to make wild,
unsubstantiated, claims., hence, the conclusions in their article.
Hi George,
the best free online-source for the basic data (and more) for meteorites is
the searchable Meteoritical Bulletin Database.
It is self-explaining and easy to use.

Hi Ed,
not to dissapoint you,
but since decades the Chiemgau-impact is brought up again and again,
though until now not a sinlge scientific relevant proof was found or
delivered, neither for the presumed impact pits and craters,
nor for the recovered samples, which turned out to be terrestrial.
Hi Martin,
That's news to me. I don't have the URL at hand to
give you for the initial study, but the isotopic
evidence the U Wurzburg team presented then was pretty
good.
I have not seen any refutations yet - I may have
missed them. Do you have a URL handy for them?
good hunting,
Ed

Hi list,
There is yet another comet sample: a carbonaceous
chondrite was recovered from the KT layer by a core
drilled in the Pacific.
Berndt should have the details on this one at hand in
his database. My own memory is not so good since my
stroke, and I have limited energy available.
good
Hi Folks!
We have to be very careful about the Chiemgau Comet Impact. To my
knowledge it's not clear, what we have there! Most scientist think, that
this is not an impact field, only a hand full do.

This is probably lost on many here, but it appears to
me that the question before the meteorite community is

Hi Ed,
the problem with the Chiemgau-debate is, that it is so old, that the
discussion seems to be driven predominantly by the human factor and not by
science anymore. Personal attacks of the different involved groups seem to
make a rational analysis of this issue impossible.
Some say they have

I think Clube and Napier would argue that all

the front where the meteorite started to split during atmospheric entry,
some seymchan with gemmy olivine, dho 008, kainsaz and a few others.
