Not sure if this will upload. These are some great photos of earth from space. My workplace blocked the bottom http address because it is streaming video. The emailjokez.com site had the same slideshow and it worked. Go figure. I have no idea why it was posted to a joke site but hey, whatever.

[meteorite-list] Tomorrow at Bonhams - The Extra-Ordinary Chondrite
Hi List, The following is for chondrule lovers. Tomorrow there is an auction at Bonhams and a VERY special specimen is included in the mix: one of the four largest complete slices of the most primitive planetary material (subtype 3.1 or less) known to exist. At the most recent Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (LPSC), the abstract on NWA 5717 was entitled: The Extra-Ordinary Chondrite: NWA 5717 for excellent reasons (see below), and the complete slice offered at Bonhams is of one of the best: NWA 5717 --It is one of only 17 ordinary chondrites with a subtype less than 3.1(NWA 5717 is sub-type 3.05) --It is one of only 14 ungrouped chondrites (It's so anomalous, there is nothing it's anomalous to) --It's the only CH-UNGR with a subtype less than 3.1 --It's the only known meteorite known to with two distinct 3.05 lithologies---both of which were previously undocumented. From the press release NWA 5717 is an extraordinary meteorite, lead researcher and former NASA scientist Dr. Ted Bunch, declared. Of the more than 40,000 meteorites known to exist, only a handful are as primitive; it is unchanged since its origins in the early solar nebula. However, what makes 5717 even more significant is that it's unique: it is from a previously unknown parent body and contains material never before seen.

Re: [meteorite-list] AD - Super Museum Quality Specimens
Hi Adam and list, I have been a fan of iron in lunar meteorites for quite some time. I have a couple samples where you need a microscope to see the iron but nothing with a chunk of iron as your Legendary - 1.478 gram part slice with metal of Lunar meteorite NWA 5000 listing clearly has. This is a big deal!!!The iron is a meteorite that impacted the moon. Because there is no atmosphere the impact velocities are high and most material is vaporized. This is why microscopic bits are the typical find. I don't know what is documented, but this is the largest iron chunk in a Lunar meteorite that I have ever heard of. To who ever grabs this sample, I will (If you trust me with it) offer to put a 1/4 micron polish on the one side and take some killer incident light shots of the iron. I will return the polished sample with a CD of the micrographs. The polish loss would be little as this sample appears to be flat and needing no grinding just a diamond slurry on a felt pad.

Hi List, Let me assure you that NWA 5717 is not only a must have for chondrule lovers but also an absolute must have for any avid meteorite and thin section collector. When I received my specimen + thin section some months ago, I was almost carried away and there were lots of oohs and aahs when I first beheld my thin section in cross-polarized light. Some of my pictures can be found in the online Encyclopedia of Meteorites! NWA 5717 is so unique that one of the lead researchers wrote about it the following: ... this is one of the most significant chondrites to come along in some time ... The two equally primitive 3.05 lithologies are a feast for the eyes and my thin section is rich in large BO chondrules. There are also both porphyritic chondrules and pyroxene chondrules - the latter displaying undulose extinction. Chondrules are crisp and chondrule boundaries are sharply delineated. In my thin section I also detected a 1.625 x 1.375 mm BO chondrule with extremely strongly zoned chondrule olivine. A large, dark cryptocrystalline chondrule (2.5 x 2.5 mm) does not only display undulose extinction but is moreover composed of several differently oriented single components (polysomatic).

[meteorite-list] MRO Penetrates Mysteries Of Martian Ice Cap

Agle/Jia-Rui Cook Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. 818-393-9011/354-0850 a...@jpl.nasa.gov/jia-rui.c.c...@jpl.nasa.gov Marc Airhart University of Texas, Austin 512-471-2241 mairh...@jsg.utexas.edu RELEASE: 10-122 NASA SPACECRAFT PENETRATES MYSTERIES OF MARTIAN ICE CAP PASADENA, Calif. -- Data from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) have helped scientists solve a pair of mysteries dating back four decades and provided new information about climate change on the Red Planet. The Shallow Radar, or SHARAD, instrument aboard MRO revealed subsurface geology allowing scientists to reconstruct the formation of a large chasm and a series of spiral troughs on the northern ice cap of Mars. The findings appear in two papers in the May 27 issue of the journal Nature. SHARAD is giving us a beautifully detailed view of ice deposits, whether at the poles or buried in mid-latitudes, as they changed on Mars over the last few million years, said Rich Zurek, MRO project scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. On Earth, large ice sheets are shaped mainly by ice flow. According to this latest research, other forces have shaped, and continue to shape, polar ice caps on Mars. The northern ice cap is a stack of ice and dust layers up to two miles deep, covering an area slightly larger than Texas. Analyzing radar data on a computer, scientists can peel back the layers like an onion to reveal how the ice cap evolved over time. One of the most distinctive features of the northern ice cap is Chasma Boreale, a canyon about as long as Earth's Grand Canyon but deeper and wider. Some scientists believe Chasma Boreale was created when volcanic heat melted the bottom of the ice sheet and triggered a catastrophic flood. Others suggest strong polar winds carved the canyon out of a dome of ice. Other enigmatic features of the ice cap are troughs that spiral outward from the center like a gigantic pinwheel. Since the troughs were discovered in 1972, scientists have proposed several hypotheses about how they formed. Perhaps as Mars spins, ice closer to the poles moves slower than ice farther away, causing the semi-fluid ice to crack. Perhaps, as one mathematical model suggests, increased solar heating in certain areas and lateral heat conduction could cause the troughs to assemble. Data from Mars now points to both the canyon and spiral troughs being created and shaped primarily by wind. Rather than being cut into existing ice very recently, the features formed over millions of years as the ice sheet grew. By influencing wind patterns, the shape of underlying, older ice controlled where and how the features grew. Nobody realized that there would be such complex structures in the layers, said Jack Holt, of the University of Texas at Austin's Institute for Geophysics. Holt is the lead author of the paper focusing on Chasma Boreale. The layers record a history of ice accumulation, erosion and wind transport. From that, we can recover a history of climate that's much more detailed than anybody expected. The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter was launched on Aug. 12, 2005. SHARAD and the spacecraft's five other instruments began science operations in November 2006. These anomalous features have gone unexplained for 40 years because we have not been able to see what lies beneath the surface, said Roberto Seu, SHARAD team leader at the University of Rome. It is gratifying to me that with this new instrument we can finally explain them. The MRO mission is managed by JPL for the Mars Exploration Program at NASA's Headquarters in Washington. SHARAD was provided by the Italian Space Agency, and its operations are led by the InfoCom Department, University of Rome.

I agree. This dealer is selling another wrong for over $100.00 on another auction.

It's worded so as to not claim it's real yet works hard to convince you that it is. I don't like stuff like this. Someone's about to drop over $100 on their first meteorite. Weak.

[meteorite-list] Micrograph gallery post Lunar crust and Lodranite
Hi List, Paul (Meteorite Times) has worked his magic and set up two new articles on my meteorite micrograph gallery. The first is NWA 6075 Lodranite found at http://www.meteorite.com/meteorite-gallery/articles/nwa-6075/ The second is a set of very high magnification images of a Lunar crust on NWA 2977. There really are crystals in this crust! It can be found at http://www.meteorite.com/meteorite-gallery/articles/nwa-2977/ I previously posted some of these shots on Face Book and some of you may have seen them but many more have been posted in my gallery. Please take a look and comments are appreciated!

[meteorite-list] Inside a fireball!
Wow. This would be quite an experience! http://www.universetoday.com/2010/05/26/atlantis-crew-riding-inside-a-fireball/ At a post-landing news conference, STS-132 commander Ken Ham described the incredible visual effects the crew of Atlantis witnessed as they returnedto Earth today. As the shuttle was engulfed in plasma during the hottest part of their re-entry through Earth's atmosphere, they were in orbitaldarkness, which highlighted the orange, fiery glow around the shuttle. We were clearly riding inside of a fireball, and we flew right into the sunrisefrom inside this fireball, so we could see the blue color of the Earth's horizon coming through the orange. It was amazing and just visually overwhelming. As evidence, ISS astronaut Soichi Noguchi captured Atlantis as that fireball, streaking though atmosphere, just as dawn approached. Dawn, and Space Shuttle re-entered atmosphere over Pacific Ocean. 32 years ofservice, 32nd beautiful landing. Forever, Atlantis! No guchi wrote on Twitter, posting a link to the image. Amazing. * Photos and more text at link above.

Re: [meteorite-list] More Photos of the Strange NWA stones
Hello Greg..List, Does Number 8 look like a Vigarano to anyone else? Hard to see that cut face, but it looks like a C and those could be a few CAI's. Number 3 still looks like... just maybe.. a planetary. I know there's not enough visible to make any sense, but it's fun to speculate. Thanks, Greg for sharing... and if you're paying for sections you must suspect something. Do let us know.
