[meteorite-list] NASA Finds New Life Form

What's up with the NASA junk science? First it's psuedo-fossils in meteorites, now a phony not-new life form. What's next, cold fusion? -- For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism. (SW) Phil Whitmer And, the blowback:

Re: [meteorite-list] NASA Finds New Life Form

To be honest i'm not sure their paper is that much more flawed than many papers of this type are - after all the point of publishing a paper is simply to initiate discussion, encourage people to repeat the experiment and prompt for counter arguments. They can't answer all the questions in one

Re: [meteorite-list] NASA Finds New Life Form

There is a big difference between junk science and science which is incomplete, or published too early, or even of generally marginal quality. In the case of this recent work, the hypothesis is sound and the techniques used are reasonable. Certainly, there is reason to suspect that more work

[meteorite-list] Fairfield iron meteorite

Hi List, Speaking of known meteorites that rust and ones that dont that bad, brings up a question about the Fairfield meteorite. All my life I lived within 8 miles where it was found at the gravel pit here in Butler county Ohio. It was found at a depth of between 70 to 120 feet deep in the

Hi Dave, Use Alt + Print Screen to take a picture of the open window or just Print Screen if you want to take a picture of your entire desktop. This is like doing a right-click copy. Now all you have to do is paste into Photoshop. In Photoshop you can crop what you want and save it as a jpg in

Re: [meteorite-list] NASA Finds New Life Form

I'm not defending the quality of the paper, only making a distinction between incomplete or poor quality science, and junk science. The paper may fall into one or both of the former categories; I don't think it falls into the latter. As I noted, the hypothesis is a sound one, and this work is

Re: [meteorite-list] List of known Rusters?

Hi Jonathan: I did a search for D96 Gun Oil on the internet. I contacted the supplier of this product and he says they will not ship small amounts to Canada. He referred me to some Canadian Dealers but they did not reply to my e- mails. Perhaps they don't stock the stuff anymore.

Re: [meteorite-list] NASA Finds New Life Form

Hello Listers,   The question with science is no science is bad science. Without the unimaginable, unthinkable, where would science be? 1492 a rock feel from the sky and to many it was a sign from GOD. But to us now this sign is Ensisheim meteorite. However, during the ages of doubt and

[meteorite-list] Melting glaciers

With all the evidence that the world's glaciers are retreating, has anyone found any meteorites as the ice melts. Not talking about Antarctica. Chris Spratt (Via my iPhone) __ Visit the Archives at

Re: [meteorite-list] Melting glaciers

Glaciers flow downwards fairly quickly. The lifetime of the ice is pretty short. Combine that with their small surface area, and I don't think there's any reason to expect them to harbor meteorites. If you were going to look anywhere, it would be in their terminal moraines, where material in

Re: [meteorite-list] List of known Rusters?

Hi Ed, The wax idea sounds good. Keeps the water out, but still breathes (lets oxygen in and out). Have you thought about microcrystalline wax, instead of clear paste floor wax? Try a company like 'Clarus Specialty Products' or 'Caromex International'. Ask for a microcrystalline wax that melts

Re: [meteorite-list] Fairfield iron meteorite

Hi Dave and all, Having purchased some of the Fairfield Meteorite from the finder and cut the material into slices, I have some comments about it. First the matrix seem very tight and the specimen had rust on the outside but was very stable on the inside. I was worried about it going bad
