[meteorite-list] Stardust Update - January 30, 2006
MEDIA RELATIONS OFFICE JET PROPULSION LABORATORY CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION PASADENA, CALIF. 91109 TELEPHONE (818) 354-5011 http://www.jpl.nasa.gov D.C. Agle (818) 393-9011 Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. Dwayne Brown/Merrilee Fellows (202) 358-1726/ (818) 393-0754 NASA Headquarters, Washington News Release: 2006-016 January 30, 2006 Stardust Mission Status Report NASA's Stardust spacecraft was placed into hibernation mode yesterday. Stardust successfully returned to Earth samples of a comet via its sample return capsule on Jan. 15. The spacecraft has logged almost seven years of flight. We sang our spacecraft to sleep today with a melody of digital ones and zeros, said Tom Duxbury, Stardust project manager at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. Stardust has performed flawlessly these last seven years and 2.88 billion miles and deserves a rest for a while, like the rest of the team. The song was actually a series of commands that was sent up to the spacecraft yesterday, Jan. 29 at 4 p.m. Pacific time (7 p.m. Eastern time). The commands deactivated all but a few essential systems, such as Stardust's solar arrays and receive antenna - which will remain powered on. This long-term hibernation state could allow for almost indefinite (tens of years) out-of-contact operations while maintaining the spacecraft health. Placing Stardust in hibernation gives us options to possibly reuse it in the future, said Dr. Tom Morgan, Stardust Program Executive at NASA Headquarters, Washington. The mission has already been a great success, but if at all possible we may want to add even more scientific dividends to this remarkable mission's record of achievement. The Stardust spacecraft is currently in an orbit that travels from a little closer to the Sun than that of the Earth to well beyond the orbit of Mars. It will next fly past Earth on January 14, 2009, at a distance of about 1 million kilometers (621,300 miles). NASA's Stardust sample return mission successfully concluded its pr ime mission on Jan. 15, 1006, when its sample return capsule carrying cometary and interstellar particles successfully touched down at 2:10 a.m. Pacific time (3:10 a.m. Mountain time) in the desert salt flats of the Utah Test and Training Range. Stardust scientists at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston are currently analyzing what could be considered a treasure-trove of cometary and interstellar dust samples that exceeded their grandest expectations. Scientists believe these precious samples will help provide answers to fundamental questions about comets and the origins of the solar system. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., manages the Stardust mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver, developed and operated the spacecraft. For information about the Stardust mission on the Web, visit www.nasa.gov/stardust .

[meteorite-list] Red on Millbillillie
Hi list I have make few test's on Millbillillie. I was curious if its possibl to clean them from this pretty red soil and .no success. I have try to dissolve this red soil or remove it in ultrasonic cleaner. No single particle was removed. Strange. What is this ? PS to Martin: In this experiment was not injured or killed any meteorite specimen. -[ MARCIN CIMALA ]-[ I.M.C.A.#3667 ]- http://www.Meteoryt.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PolandMET.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.Gao-Guenie.com GSM +48(607)535 195 [ Member of Polish Meteoritical Society ] __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Great news from Polish meteorite area !
This another nice fresh Pultusk http://it.geocities.com/milanomet/Pultuskgr.274.JPG Matteo --- Stefan Brandes [EMAIL PROTECTED] ha scritto: Very nice specimen. Do you have pictures of the 220g and 245g full specimen also? Or perhaps fotos of the four pieces where found? (in situ) Congrats to the 137th year on earth! I wish I´d look that good at that age ;) Stefan Hello list Im sure that most of our US friends are too busy to read list, but to rest of us I have great news from Poland. This news ofcourse are not related to saturday tragedy in Katowice where 67 people was killed on a pigeons fair. Anyway, I want inform everyone about two new finds of old polish meteorites. Tooday is BirthDay of Pultusk Fall, 30 January 1868, 137 years ago ! Find No.1 is PULTUSK Specimens was found by polish meteorite hunter in june and september 2005. He was very lucky to find 4 big specimens (105g, 220g, 245g and 301g) in total of 870g. With help of local people he was able to find area where was a big possibility to locate meteorite specimens. He spend several weeks search suspect locations. Finally his work was rewarded. I have purchased 3 of 4 his meteorites. Inside this specimens are brown, but prof Karwowski from Silesian University settle Weathering Grade only to W1. Meteorites have still fussion crust. They are the biggest Pultusk specimens that was found in ground. Also they are in excelent condition in comparison to other that was found in last 10-15 years. But other specimens was verry small, 10-30grams so they are too small to survivte so many years. All other new finds are located in National Geological Institute in Warsaw, but its only rust in bad condition. http://www.polandmet.com/_pultusk.htm Find No.2 is SEELAGEN In fact its Polish-German meteorite, becouse when it was found, Poland was in Prussian occupation. Right now nearest town is Przelazy and for us this meteorite have the same name. Anyway, every specimen that was found in this location by my friend is melted and shocked by impact. Thompson structures are completly destroyed or heavy damaged. This is excelent visible on etched slices. Right now I have slices from new Seelagen. It is 220g endpiece from 1kg specimen. It looks a little different from my first one, becouse it is less damaged and there are visible Thompson structures, but they are verry stretched and bended. There are also 3 other specimens. Two of them are small complete individuals with etched windows, and one endpiece. Every specimen was cleaned from rust. Iron now have platinium color. Im sure this will make them resistible for rust becouse water cant penetrate rust. http://www.polandmet.com/_seelasgen2.htm __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list M come Meteorite - Matteo Chinellato Via Triestina 126/A - 30030 - TESSERA, VENEZIA, ITALY Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sale Site: http://www.mcomemeteorite.it Collection Site: http://www.mcomemeteorite.info MSN Messanger: spacerocks at hotmail.com EBAY.COM:http://members.ebay.com/aboutme/mcomemeteorite/ ___ Yahoo!
