[meteorite-list] Visitor from Space?

Greetings, all, Here's another one of those mysterious-hole-in-the-pond-ice stories. Aside from the astronomer teacher discounting a meteorite because a bright, burning ball would have been observed, particularly profound is the last quote in the article. (Reading so many of these, I've

Was that Gary K. Foote that was close to one of these reports last winter? Did that one have perceived indications of splashes, too? Hi Pete, It was indeed my wife and I who explored this phenomonon last winter. I have a page online with pictures - yes there were splash marks. Also, the

Re: [meteorite-list] Space leaders work to replace lunar base withmanned asteroid missions

Hi, All, The U.S. is already spending an estimated 2.7 to 3.5 Trillion Dollars on a Lunar Base, an extensive outpost in a very hostile environment. The only problem is: it's located in Iraq. Sterling K. Webb -- - Original

Re: [meteorite-list] La Mancha eucrite

Hi Mike, yes, we will never understand! Certainly, the 33 pieces and 100g are important for the data. But perhaps it will be corrected again. A few days ago was the TKW still at 300g. Today, there are already around 500g. Let's look at the next few days. Best wishes Mirko --- Michael

Re: [meteorite-list] Bernd Pauli's excellent abstract of Burke, part 6

Dear List, The veneration of meteorites by pre-Columbian Native American cultures, as objects from the sky, even when the meteorites in veneration are finds that came down at times that predate the culture, is no mystery to me. Native Americans must certainly have known of falls, and when they
