Hi, Chris
You have to ask? An 80-foot high meteorite
covering 0.5 acre (100' x 200')? Which was
originally a 22 meter iron sphere?
That object, at the slowest entry speed (12
km/s), gets you a 1 MegaTon (TNT) impact
and a 1650-foot crater, 352 feet deep!
I think SOMEBODY would have

Dear list,
I wish to thank many of you for having provided new or corrected data for
my compilation of Ensisheim meteorite masses.
Now that the reception of such data had slowed down significantly, I am
ready to send you, on request, my provisional compilation list as updated

Dear Zelimir;
I enjoyed reading your post. Just a thought, when is France going to
pressure all colletors/collections to give their specimens back?

I'm just seeking an explanation. If we discount outright fraud, the fact

If the object were falling at 50 m/s, an 18 mph wind would be sufficient to
give it a 20° deviation
The model of free fall would seem to differ greatly from an airplane in
