Hi,
Randall, the impact calculator you are using is
an excellent tool, but it has real limitations. The
authors say in their disclaimer that it breaks down
and becomes unreliable for very small or very
large impacts, and the event you are talking about
is, by their standards, very small.

I have been having fun with my BL meteorites and just aquired a nice ~100
gram slice.
There was much discussion about this LL5 meteorite a while ago because of
its gorgeous crust. Not so much discussion on its interior. My new slice
is incredible! It has large homogeneous grey

As I have done in the past, I forgot how crappy geocities is. Not many can
look at my pictures before my bandwidth is exceeded.
I have reposted my pics on a photosite. The one that looks like a slice of
bread is the new 100 gram slice.

At the risk of stepping into a private argument

out something about meteoric entry.

I can absolutely confirm this, only with the slight difference that the

Lunar eclipse in Wyoming was interesting but nothing to leave the

in town, waiting, waiting, waiting. A red moon with a mysterious
