Hi Sterling, list.
Thanks a bunch for your imput! I came up with a fictional (though as plausible
as possible) rocky planet orbiting HIP 56948 - which I intend for it to have a
somewhat higher gravity than Earth's, but wasn't sure whether to make it bigger
like this new Super Earth. On it inhab
Not to doubt the scientific trustworthiness of
the Daily Mail, but they state that the light pulse
was seen December, 2008, "long before it was
announced that the star Gliese 581 has habitable
planets in orbit around it."
But Gliese 581 c, the first low mass extrasolar
planet found to be near its

And now we have this to contemplate.

Aloha,
Thanks for the note. Yeah, that Brother Guy fellow is a rare bird. I am
not so concerned with taking precise specific gravity value measurements
(I've been doing that for years) so much as wanting to get the word out

Hi Dave,
I was only trying to tell you that those are not official meteorites, but if
you were "well aware that the two Round Pond meteorites had not been
mentioned with official citations", I would think that you would be well
aware that they then cannot be considered meteorites (since they have
Hi Richard,
>IOW, amateurs who contribute to the Science of Meteorites
Yes there are. Only a very few of these, who are doing the field work and
who brought and are bringing the largest part of the world meteorite
inventory to the labs, institutes and museums
do have an academic degree in geology
