Hello Ken, All,
That looks nothing like a fresh iron meteorite. Fusion crust? That looks
more like rust, and nevermind those shallow indentations that are being
called regmaglypts - if you want to see what a fresh iron looks like, take
out a Sikhote or Taza - or draw up some pics of any other
Can anyone get ahold of the famous Myth Busters in the San Francisco
area, this one would be a great one for Jammie to tackle!
Best,

Hello Gary, All,
Fallen meteorites do not have 'craters' on them.
Their flight through earth's atmosphere removes all traces of original
exterior surfaces that existed when the body was still in space (or, if the
body is large enough to retain some of these features on its rear side, it

Looks like a Sikhote-shrapnel.
It is covered with rust, whatever it is. And the white areas, any guesses what
those are? Corrosion? Paint?

Hmm
Do they have any large factories nearby? Or perhaps some industrial plants
that refine or maybe recycle scrap metal.
This thing makes the NJO look quite genuine.
I guess the media will go nuts for a bit, before its actually been tested.

Hello All,
This looks even less like a fresh iron than the NJ object...

Hey List,
This looks just like a piece of a I-beam that has been cut off then kicked
around for a couple of years. How it got airbourne is another thing. Anybody
know a teenager that can throw a couple ounces of steel 60 miles an hour from
across the street? Go to any high school

In the video, Skip mentions fusion crust and thumbprints on the
side we did not see. Thanks to Dave, I wrote the David Proeber

Dear Ken,
Is it me or is this a poor example of fusion crust and
thumbprints??
I don't see it yet as I stand on my head to look at the photo up side down.
I still go with hoodlums chucking a piece of foundry steel through a

Hi Ken,

Thanks very much for posting the video link. Now we can see
that although my estimate yesterday of the computer table's
depth of two feet was maybe a little high, the hole in the
window is far less
Has anyone noticed the impact crater on the edge of this
object? If I missed a post pointing it out I apologize. Seems
obvious to me...

Robert Skip Nelson, a professor of geology at ISU, came out to
Riddles' home to take a look at the object, which is about the size and
shape of deck of cards.
Hi All,
Another mystery:
A chunk of metal that crashed through the bedroom window of David
and Dee Riddle just after 9:30 a.m. appears may be a meteorite but
it also could be a piece of space junk according to preliminary
analysis by several Illinois State University geology professors.
