Hola Chris and Sterling,
You guys need to attach more numbers to these arguments imo with sensitivity

Here a supplement to Martin´s question:
A large mass of iron was found before before 1900; in 1965 it was transported
to its present location in Urumchi, V.F.Buchwald, Handbook of Iron Meteorites,
1975, 2, p.274; see
At least, according to this article.

You refer to your rock as the place it was found, usually the name of the

Hi Sterling-
Indeed, you did not previously reveal the extent of the injuries (which
would appear to have been caused by something rather larger than the 50 g
meteorite under discussion here). But I wasn't being glib, nor
misrepresenting 19th Century medicine. This was certainly not a time
Hola Doug-
My earlier response to Pete had numbers attached: a 50 g stone suggests a 30
mm diameter and a terminal velocity of 50 m/s (I assumed a sea level fall).
Not having viewed the stone in question, I simply assumed it was spherical,
hence there was no speed range given. I'm happy to
I have a lot of Tatahouines, from tiny to 18.3g.
And I will be back in Denver Sunday, if you are still looking by then.

Unfortunately they are both from the side and don't show the mass as clearly as
the image you have does. I looked for some better images but all if found were

definitely not a crater, as this would not make sense on a stone, right? I
