Ok,
A little more on my
idea of how to search for meteorites in relatively high contrast, low
noiseareas like sand dunes. I realize that they won't be as easy to
automatically recognize as a 10 foot diameter shinny black fusion crusted
meteorite in the middle of an Antarctic

Hello all,
I know that I am not the rocket
scientist here this may be an oversimplified theory but I have a picture
of my house my fathers house taken from a satellite in orbit. Now I may be
wrong but I kinda think that if someone is going to go to the trouble of putting
Hi Dan, Sounds like you have been discussing things with Mr. Rumsfield and his employees. One thing about GPS though ... it comes in different flavors. I'm retired now, but while I was on active duty we had GPS units that would be accurate to one meter. I've found most civilian units do not

Jim,
Normally objects which heat up faster also cool faster, so the dark,
metal-containing meteorites would probably cool off faster than the
surrounding sand or earth. They might still show up as a negative thermal
image however.

Dear Dave,
I think you should follow through on your idea and let us all know what the
results are. There are literally tons of pigeon dropping in the palm trees
and on the flat roofs of buildings in the Phoenix area. In fact, there are
quite a few on the roof of my own house. Come on down

On a downside, it seems that Dean Bessey and

Hi. A quick question:
Is TARBAGATAI (L5), Russia, of 1912/11/10 a fall or a find?
I'm doing the November entries for the 2003 Meteorite Calendar,
and MetBase ver.5 has it as a FALL, M. Grady Meteorites
from A to Z, says FIND.
I don't know which Meteoritical Bulletin it would be under.
Thanks
Hi Dave and all,
I think that a number of people, myself and some of my friends who are also meteorite
aficionados, have not only thought of this but have hunted the dunes in Indiana and
Michigan. One word of caution though, the Gary Steel Mills has deposited both small
and larger flakes and

Spring Equinox, or other seasonal observance.
Second, are there any terrestrial rocks that resemble pallasites, or is
the mix of crystal and iron strictly a meteoric phenomenon?

Hello All

I can't answer this question but I know there's a type of rock called San

Hello Roman and List,
The 4th edition of the Catalogue (1985)
Regarding the discussion about Remote-controlled
Meteorite-Recovery over sand dunes -
again, the technology exists, but the cost is still
keeping it impractical.
But there's a bigger problem. Here in SoCal the more
promising sand dunes are those that are Off-Limits to
off-road vehicle traffic.

While I do not agree that a 60% increase is around the same
price, neither do I want to see ANYONE take any major financial losses
in this or any other situation.
I am dissapointed you SIMPLY do not state you will stop calling
names and using obscenities on the list.
Michael, you are correct, I will do my best to stop cursing, and the name
calling is certainly below me, please remind me should I fail to remember
that in the heat that this list often generates. I appreciate that you
understand the dangers and difficulties in making the journey, let me tell

The price is MORE than fair. Thanks for making the trip and bringing more of
this one to the market!! I don't see why anyone would complain at 3.20/g for
an LL6 fall, especially this fresh.
Looking forward to my 600g,

I only wanted what we discussed...something in the 20gram range for $2.00 a
gram. I guess my biggest problem was that I had budgeted for the expense and
then found it twice what I had planned on.
