[meteorite-list] The high-pitched scream?

Hi folks, On another forum someone posted about a recent TV programme he'd watched about NEOs. At the end the guest astronomer said something to the effect that the first we know about an incoming impactor could be the high-pitched scream as it speeds through the atmosphere. It got me

[meteorite-list] Unclassified NWAs: What's the attraction?

Hi all, I've seen on some websites that dealers are selling unclassified NWAs. Maybe it's because I'm such a newbie, but I don't understand why anyone would want to buy them, especially if they look like just a typical ordinary chondrite or iron? It's just a space rock that was found somewhere
