2003-08-25 Thread Matson, Robert
Mike is correct -- it's a simple mistranslation. Furthermore, the S-type asteroid Hebe is a candidate for the H-chondrite parent body, indicating that the Israeli meteorite is probably an H-chondrite. --Rob -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday
