Hi Rob
You are correct about the Montrose fireball. It fragmented very high above the city of Montrose. I have included the text from Chris Peterson's website www.cloudbait.com below. He explains it much better than I could.
The fireball began about 25 miles southeast of Montrose at a height of

Hi list
I was sitting looking at my SAU 001 and I
thought it is one of the most beautifull meteorites I have ever
seen.
Have you ever seen the Huble deepfield images
?
They look just the same as a slice of SAU
001.
Yes one can get religious by looking at
such
a slice :-)
If anyone

Kudos from Germany, Jeff! This will certainly be a useful tool
and a excellent source of reference - especially the JPEGs

in on your thoughts ... Lars Pedersen
Hello Lars and List,
Jeff, I noticed the meteorite that is placed out in the ocean in the Oman
map. I saw this a year back when plotting the points and thought it was a
simple error. Can you find which meteorite that is and see who found it and
why it plots in the ocean?
Great job, wonderful work.

Hi All,
Don't remember anyone here mentioning Dan Brown's novel,
_Deception Point_ (the same Dan Brown who wrote _Angels Demons_
and _The Da Vinci Code_). Meteorites figure prominently in this
story, so I thought list members would enjoy reading it. I think
Dan has a little bit of confusion
Great job, Jeff !
Thanks a lot for making that available.
all the best from Austria,
