Shawn,
A probe mount can be much less than a gram but it depends on the
texture of the sample. For example, I just finished some preliminary
work on a new unclassified shergottite and had separated out a ~0.4
gram fragment for various tests, and used only about a third of that
for the probe mount
I'm not sure what the witnesses saw, but I'm pretty sure I've seen that
same picture before, and it pretty obviously shows a contrail.

Carl thank you for your explanation on SEM analysis. As for testing meteorites
I assume they have to be a thin slice from what I had read. Now are there other
tests where you can take 30mg of the meteorite and get the same result? But I
would assume this would be

Exactly. And what throws most observers off, is that the contrail is moving
lower right frame to upper left frame. The dissapating and illuminated contrail
is from an aircraft off frame to the

petroglyphs are valid in my own experience. The only thing
Hi Jay
thank you for the information.
You are right, of course.
I'm quite sure that this photo was just chosen for illustration purposes.
I never actually thought that this was an authentic photo taken on September 1
in the Ukraine.
I suppose they haven't got any photos or videos yet. Thus the
Hi All,
I have placed the remaining small fragments of Moapa Valley on my web
page for sale. These are the last / only fragments available.
This is a great opportunity to add a rare CM1 carbonaceous meteorite to
your collection.
Thanks,

Marco is correct. If you check the archives from umpteen years ago, you

Heathrow,
