Re: [meteorite-list] A point of contention/question
Hello Pete: Yes, the Earth shoulc look like Mars or Mercury (or the Moon for that matter). However, you are on the right track. I am sure that Sterling will respond with more detailed comments, but here are a few of the things that affect what we see: 1. Atmosphere: as in the case of the recent impact on Earth (2008 TC3) small things do not make it to the surface. 2. Atmosphere (wind and water): weathering will wear away, fill in craters. Just look at what it does to mountain ranges over millions of years. 3. Plate tectonics: very few old surfaces on the Earth. Lava could cover the craters, plates move and land goes away or is messed up when plates meet, etc. 4. An object could land in the water, never to be seen. I am sure there are other things, but this is a good start on why the Earth does not look like the other terrestrial planets or the Moon (Venus being much closer to Earth thanks to its atmosphere and having been resurfaced). Larry On Wed, October 8, 2008 9:06 pm, Pete Shugar wrote: On the one hand, there are rather stunning photos of a very cratered Mercury and on the other side of us a very pock-marked Mars. Both look like you couldn't even walk a hundred feet in any direction without stepping in another crater. 1 If they are so cratered from meteorites (was there an atmosphere?) that they are everywhere, Would not the earth look the same- excluding the drifting contental plates? I know there is a meteorite for every wide spot in the road in West Texas. (I'm trying to collect every one of them.) 2 It would seem to me that almost anywhere that you wanted to go, you could conceivably find a meteorite. 3 Is the movement of the plates what keeps the earth's landscape from looking like Mars or Mercury? 4 All the craters on earth are huge (the smallest that I know is Odessa at a mere 550 feet). Actually there are 5 craters, making it a rather complex system with the smallest at just over 22 feet, but it is a very young crater at ~50,000 years old about as old as is Canyon Diablo. This excludes Carancus as I'm not convinced it is a true crater. Is there any evidence of micro sized craters? Maybe something on the order of only 50 feet to maybe 100 feet across that is truly old?

[meteorite-list] AD: NWA SALE
I havent been making many sales lately (Partly because I am busy with the new shop and partly because it is much harder to buy meteorites nowadays with far fewer meteorites being found in the Sahara) but I have put together a sale of some nice meteorites here. http://www.meteoriteshop.com/meteoritesale/wsale21.html This will be linking this sale to my website soon but today list members can take a 20% discount on anything of interest.

[meteorite-list] OT: INTERSTELLAR DIPLOMACY and Hello
Hello Sterling and list, I find this a bit humorous and dangerous at the same time: Sterling wrote: Now, a social networking company, Bebo, has set up a project to collect 500 messages from Earth children and beam them to Gliese 581c, a new kind of FaceBook (which assumes the Gliesians HAVE faces)... Gliese i581c is a planet that may be 5 times the mass of Earth. If there are intelligent inhabitants, wouldn't they be like incredibly strong on Earth? A race of Hulks come to mind. Sending them 500 voices of little children sounds like inviting a lot of trouble. I don't think it would be a bad thing if they don't pay a visit.:-) OK, I just want to to say Hello to everyone on this list. I'm a newbie and I've already met some of you thru meteorite sales. Since starting this hobby, I've been scouring roadways for any fallen meteorites. So far the only thing that looked like meteorites I've found is road tar. Carl _ Want to do more with Windows Live?
