Hello list,
A report from MSNBC on Saturday night's fireball in the Pacific
Northwest. At least one very cool video exists of the event, as I saw a
clip of it on MSNBC TV a short time ago. Perhaps someone can locate
that clip on the web somewhere?

Hi Todd and all,
I didn't see a reply to your answer so here is one. The last Catalog of
Meteorites is the purplish one dated September 2000 and published by

and some from Mars and how we know. Thought it might be of interest to

Hi Al Todd
If I remember correctly when they added the CD to the 5th edition they
mentioned that it would be easier to update and it would be updated earlier.
Has anyone heard anything about this.
If you are looking for the information that is the most updated I would suggest
looking at list
All this talk of desert irons being used for making tools makes me wonder:
think that there's a
chance that the look of Damascus Steel was orignally an attempt to reproduce
the appearance of
Widmanstatten patterns in meteoritic iron?

The so-called Damascus steel is a laminate of thin sheets of very hard but
brittle high carbon
steel interleaved with thin sheets of much more malleable iron. The hundreds

interleaved sheets are forged by pounding and twisting while at a heat near but

Everybody seems to enjoy meteorite hunting tales so here is one from my
just completed trip to Oman with Mike Farmer and Jim Strope. It was a good
trip for me. I found a HUGE piece of Mike's lunar, a whopping 3.1 grams.

Great tale Eric! I love reading about our list members' meteorite hunting
expeditions. The thunderstorm part was especially harrowing. Makes us
appreciate the stuff you and other meteorite dealers go through to bring

When we reflect that just a few short years ago,
