Re: [meteorite-list] Info on Sikhote Alin's shrapnel

I did not know heat was needed at all to form shrapnel...surely it is just due to shearing of fragments from the dramatic collisions of fragments on impact or during exposive events on the way down that did not leave enough time for ablation? Graham UK Maurizio Eltri

Thanks Greg. I'm about ready to head up to a nice dark sky site for the night. I'll be observing our neighbors in the universe the first part of the night, and lying on my cot in my winter sleeping bag, looking straight up the rest. I may borrow Richard Norton's trick of setting the alarm clock
