Hi list,
Recently I published a new meteorite book, aimed toward kids but great
for all ages, it's "50 State Unofficial Meteorites!"
I've previously written 50 State Fossils and 50 State Gems and
Minerals, which cover official US state symbols that are fossils,
gems, or minerals. The current

Hi List,
Was just reading about an interesting object found in Lignite
(essentially coal) in Austria in 1885.
Initially thought to be a meteorite, then ruled out, but I don't see
the actual references for that.
Looks very interesting:

which brings up the question of why hasn't this already been mined if
true?:

Gold… 6.9
Palladium……… 4.8
Platinum……….. 5.1
Rhodium……. 7.6

Hi folks,
Been seeing some stuff in my twitter feed about a possible fall in the
Sterling, Virginia area this morning. Specifically near Oak Grove

The news article is misinterpreting statements and adding their own
opinion. At no point in the original press release or the original
Nature article

You're probably right about them playing things to get more funding,
they obviously should have better pics since they also did a ground
expedition to the site:
On a later trip to the crater site, the team led by Eagles mapped the
ice surface in great detail with a laser-scanning instrument.
You'd think they'd come up with some better pictures before going to
press, but no, just one far away shot in a 2 minute video of them
talking about it.

For clarification:
Shipping Wars is about independent shippers who place bids against
each other to win contracts to ship special items. In tonight's
episode one of the loads was a bunch of space suits and meteorites for
Geoff Notkin.

Looks like the result of a methane-trap explosion!

Don't dismiss something just because it uses the phrase Global
Warming. In this case all it takes is regional warming in the arctic
circle to release methane previously frozen in the permafrost, which
can ignite underground and explode.

A good article describing natural quasicrystals and the meteorite it
was found in. The meteorite contains ringwoodite and also aluminum:
