Re: [meteorite-list] eBay restriction on international auctions of meteorites?
Gary, This has happened to me many times before. In most cases you can simply change the listing slightly and re list it. In some of the cases I was selling antique ivory or swords and there are countries that do forbid these objects. When I called eBay about the sword listing they told me in Portugal NO weapons are allowed to be purchased by it's citizens so, eBay will not allow international listings of weapons of any kind. But, again usually a call to eBay can straighten out these messes. dial 866-907-3229 and prompt to continue without a pin number and ask to speak with a rep. On another note eBay has been sued and lost cases many times. The most recent hit ebat took involved a seller selling fake Tiffany antiques. For this now most sellers some day soon may be required to have stuff authenticated by a licensed appraiser prior to listing the Name Brand stuff for sale. Yes, it is getting tougher out there.

Dick (Richard Lipke) ,IMCA 1155 - Original Message - Hello Craig: I will respond to your question and to Pete's question about why I (one of the last two candidates to put out my statement) have not put out my statement yet. My statement will be coming out soon, but I have held off for one important reason: A question that was asked had to do with the IMCA's budget. While I have my own personal opinions, I am also a member of the IMCA Board and we were having discussions as to what we needed to say and the best method for distributing this to the membership (and only the IMCA membership). My official statement, now that the budget question has been addressed, will come out later today or early tomorrow (Tucson time). Now to address, in part, your question. As Elizabeth just posted on the Metlist, what you have done (unintentionally) has been part of the problem that we are facing. You wished to ask a question of the IMCA members, but sent your question to the entire Metlist, probably getting to less than half of the IMCA members! Discussions that should be occuring only among IMCA members gets posted on the Metlist. When this happens, many IMCA members are left out of the discussion and, unfortunately, people who should not be involved in the discussions add their two cents (or more) and things con then get out of hand. I think that if you were to look at where the accusations that you refer to come from, they are not always (and probably rarely) from IMCA members, but others who are on the Metlist. This was one of the dilemmas the Board faced with respect to the Budget: what is discussed on the IMCA list should stay on the IMCA list and has no business on the Metlist.

Re: [meteorite-list] [IMCA] Elections
Hi Elizabeth, I agreed with your post and got a kick out of some of the replies to it. I'm pretty much in the same boat as you, so I just consider myself a provisional IMCA member (which is one tier above an unclassified IMCAer) since I was in on it founding when things were free, and I recall a a year more, but decided to save the $100-$200 since then as I've never had a problem in thousands of interchanges, knock on wood ;-). But that could change in an instant ;-( though I don't know if anybody could remedy much if you go in good faith to start with and someone else is a bad apple. Really though, IMCA stuff should be kept 100% on that list or in private for a number of reasons - for politics, we on the list cannot know the complete story so it is Palin or Obama spam at worst and advertising at best which should be within the IMCA and subject to its rules, if by candidates up for election on a level playing field as we assume all are qualified and the electorate is educated to make decisions based on personal inclinations. - because some people are sensitive to public peer pressures to pay for something they may not yet have a need and otherwise might actualy have already joined if not for the stigma of arm-twisting. - because the IMCA should not expose any of its mullings to the public to accomplish the primary goal of presenting an effective force to get things accomplished rather than getting sidetracked with nonsensical detail noise which can be misinterpreted by others - because the IMCA can be misquoted by corresponding in good faith in a contenscious situation that can later become distorted because someone became disgruntled about who knows what, and later the IMCA can't respond to such manipulation without exposing confidential information As a matter of fact, the IMCA shares a lot in common with judges in Mexico. That is why by law they are only allowed to speak through their resolutions and decisions. Kind of takes the fun away from going to court there...oops sorry for the mumbling, it's been a dasterdly day. Good luck to you and to all those involved in this! Kindest wishes and good seeing!

I will post predictions for the more-likely 0:00 UT - 4:00 UT window a little later using the freshest orbital elements I can get. Due to the earth's oblateness and UARS' very circular orbit, reentry is more likely to occur at lower latitudes (30 south to 30 north) than elsewhere. -Rob From: imca-boun...@imcamail.de [mailto:imca-boun...@imcamail.de] On Behalf Of Frank Meteorites Sent: Friday, September 23, 2011 8:37 AM To: i...@imcamail.de Subject: [IMCA] UARS Re-Entry unsure when Hello dearest IMCA Members I am searching and considering all possible sources available worldwide to kinda make out, if it would be an effort to stay awake for some hours getting an opportunity to watch a possible NASA's UARS re-entry to earth's atmosphere.

Does anybody have a clue of a reliable source in the internet to see it's momentary heighth and ground track? I have considered nasa's official site, space weather, heavens above. But no satisfying source could tell, what's happing in real time. I cannot believe this. I'm sure there are hundreds of employees sitting in front of some screens observing the doomed satellite.

[meteorite-list] UARS Fiery Return Now Expected Overnight Tonight
http://www.spaceflightnow.com/news/n1109/23uars/ Satellite's fiery return now expected overnight tonight BY WILLIAM HARWOOD STORY WRITTEN FOR CBS NEWS SPACE PLACE USED WITH PERMISSION September 23, 2011 NASA's decommissioned Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite, out of gas and out of control, is not descending toward re-entry as rapidly as expected, officials say, likely delaying the satellite's kamikaze plunge to Earth by a few hours to late Friday or early Saturday. Experts expect more than two dozen chunks of debris to survive re-entry and hit the ground in a 500-mile-long footprint somewhere along the satellite's orbital track. But given the bus-size 6.3-ton's satellite's trajectory and the vast areas of ocean and sparsely populated areas UARS passes over, experts say it is unlikely any falling debris will result in injuries or significant property damage. Additional radar tracking is required to pinpoint when -- and where -- the satellite will make its final descent. As of 10:30 a.m. EDT on Sept. 23, 2011, the orbit of UARS was 100 miles by 105 miles (160 km by 170 km), NASA said in a brief update. Re-entry is expected late Friday, Sept. 23, or early Saturday, Sept. 24, Eastern Daylight Time. Solar activity is no longer the major factor in the satellite's rate of descent. The satellite's orientation or configuration apparently has changed, and that is now slowing its descent. There is a low probability any debris that survives re-entry will land in the United States, but the possibility cannot be discounted because of this changing rate of descent. It is still too early to predict the time and location of re-entry with any certainty, but predictions will become more refined in the next 12 to 18 hours. A subsequent update from U.S. Strategic Command, which operates a global radar network used to monitor more than 20,000 objects in low-Earth orbit, predicted the satellite would re-enter sometime around 11:34 p.m. EDT Friday as the spacecraft flies over the southern Indian Ocean. But the prediction was uncertain by several hours and at orbital velocities of 5 miles per second, just 10-minutes of uncertainty translates into 3,000 miles of uncertainty in position. The centerpiece of a $750 million mission, the Upper Atmosphere Research satellite was launched from the shuttle Discovery in September 1991. The solar-powered satellite studied a wide variety of atmospheric phenomena, including the depletion of Earth's ozone layer 15 to 30 miles up. The long-lived satellite was decommissioned in 2005 and one side of its orbit was lowered using the last of its fuel to hasten re-entry and minimize the chances of orbital collisions that could produce even more orbital debris. No more fuel is available for maneuvering and the satellite's re-entry will be uncontrolled. Nick Johnson, chief scientist with NASA's Orbital Debris Program at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, told reporters last week he expects most of the satellite to burn up as it slams into the dense lower atmosphere at more than 17,000 mph. But computer software used to analyze possible re-entry outcomes predicts 26 pieces of debris will survive to impact the surface in a 500-mile-long down-range footprint. We looked at those 26 pieces and how big they are and we've looked at the fact they can hit anywhere in the world between 57 north and 57 south and we looked at what the population density of the world is, he said. Numerically, it comes out to a chance of 1-in-3,200 that one person anywhere in the world might be struck by a piece of debris. Those are obviously very, very low odds that anybody's going to be impacted by this debris. For comparison, some 42.5 tons of wreckage from the shuttle Columbia hit the ground in a footprint stretching from central Texas to Louisiana when the orbiter broke apart during re-entry in 2003. No one on the ground was injured and no significant property damage was reported. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] UARS SoCal observing clarification
Clarification: Note that for those in Southern California, UARS should be briefly visible low in the southwest (under Scorpius) rising around 7:44 pm PDT this evening and going into the earth's shadow only 2 minutes later about 6 degrees to the lower right of Antares. Because of the very low altitude of UARS at this time, there is significant parallax shift depending on your exact location. It will be 6 degrees to the lower right of Antares from San Diego; however from Los Angeles, it will go into shadow closer to the stinger of Scorpius, 20 degrees to the lower left of Antares. --Rob __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Forwarded from Blaine ... -- Forwarded message -- Steve, Regarding your ridiculous “High Noon” challenge – even though I was not there YOU HAVE LOST!! Does this look familiar http://www.impactika.com/images/fake5000.jpg Well IT SHOULD!! I got this (along with 2 other samples) from the guy on 2000 Rd in Delta you “hired” to cut it. As I do very little on line (and even less on E-Bay), I really did not know what rock all of the NWA 5000 supposed pairing fuss was about. I happened to bump into this gem http://www.ebay.com/itm/Colorado-Lunar-Meteorite-/120781889556?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0hash=item1c1f296014 while looking for something else in the E-Bay listings today. I immediately recognized it as something I already had a piece of! I have already analyzed this stuff and found it to be wholly terrestrial (as were the other two specimens you gave the rock shop). I finally got to analyze a nice specimen of the real NWA 5000 in Denver last week (which, in my opinion does not look much like your stuff at all, aside from the breccia texture. But then what do I know, I only have a bachelor’s in geology with minors in math, physics and chemistry and a meteorite dealer for 25 years now but YOU have an Audio Visual degree!). Any way: HERE ARE THE RESULTS: I ran both of these in two different modes for a better element coverage. Soils mode (the one that is best for accurately picking up very low level stuff in rocks and dirt), is not set up to see Si or Mg in my machine, so I use “Mining” mode to see those often important elements (among others). This mode is not as accurate in the numbers reported as soils, but it gives a pretty darn good ball-park number (this really does not matter when comparing two rocks run on the same machine. Any errors in calibration accuracy will be the same in the other sample, so they ‘wash out” so to speak). I have also converted the numbers all to ppm, since this is what you seem to be so stuck on. I usually use % as that is a little easier for the average person to understand (for those of you that are curious 1ppm = .0001% or 1gram in a metric ton (1000kg, 2200pounds). “SOILS” MODE: NWA (5000) Ba (160), Ca (143,087), Cl (4775), Co (553), Cr (544), Cu (52), Fe (37,941), I (570), K (1512), Mn (476), Rb (3), S (1429), Sr (178), Ti (1619), Zn (23), Zr (87) YOUR “Pairing” Ba (580), Ca (11,464), Cl (10,064), Cu (59), Fe (6853), K (23,422), Mn (99), Pb (19), Rb (64), S (964), Sr (714), Ti (1469), Zn (44), Zr (169) A quick look at this tells me that you have way too little Ca, Cr (you had NONE of this critically important element in all meteorites in this sample!), Fe, and Mn. You also have way to high Ba, K, and Sr -- all features common to many terrestrial (that is EARTH rocks, if you don’t understand the lingo) materials. “MINING” MODE: Note – LE is “light elements” This device cannot see elements of atomic weight lighter than Mg. In rocks, this is usually O (oxygen). NWA (5000) Al (154,940), Ca (131,430), Cd (200), Cr (850), Fe (45,800), LE (334,220), Mg (43,300), Mn (890), Ni (50), Sb (320), Si (285,060), Sn (220), Ti (2110), V (260), Zr (87) YOUR “pairing” Al (89,390), Ca (8270), Cd (194), Cr (190), Fe (13,570), LE (409,990), Mn (290), P (600), Pb (13), S (500), Sb (300), Si (472, 980), Sn (210), Ti (2780), V (500), Zr (218) A quick look at these numbers shows that your sample is to high in LE (oxygen), Si and Zr. Your sample is to low in Al, Ca, Cr, and Fe. The high Si linked with a high LE number tells me that you have a lot of quartz in this rock and hints that it is indeed a rhyolite lava breccia. These type lavas are VERY common to the San Juan Volcanic field just south of you. Much of those mountains you see to your south are the remnants of huge, explosive volcanoes. The high Si content makes these lavas thick and sticky and the volcanoes they are associated with particularly violent in their eruptions – hence the breccia structure in your rock (though, admittedly, it could be from a fault zone but it looks more typical Rhyolite breccia to me). So Steve, you have lost! I personally think that, since you demanded us all to quit and write apology letters, you should be required to completely remove yourself from the field of meteoritics, go back on the news channels, papers and libraries and apologize to all of the poor young kids and adults you misled in your media blitz peddling your fake rocks the last year or so. Another thing – REMOVE THIS FRAUDULANT LISTING FROM E-BAY NOW! If you don’t, I will take my data to “team E-Bay” and show them that this is a fraud (anybody else out there that has better E-Bay connections – feel free to contact them for me if the listing does not go away in the next day or two). I tried to “play nice” with you. All I ever did was to offer to analyze material for you, but you decided that you had some kind of axe to grind with me. Well, play time is over and I mean business!

[meteorite-list] Last visible UARS observation
Last reliable observation I'm aware of was from Texas at ~1:18 UT (8:18pm CDT) when it was more or less on time. But the windows of sunlit visibility are extremely narrow, so it could easily have survived for hours after the Texas observation. --Rob -Original Message- From: Jeff Kuyken [mailto:i...@meteorites.com.au] Sent: Friday, September 23, 2011 10:36 PM To: 'Greg Hupé'; 'Rob Matson'; 'Meteorite List' Subject: RE: [meteorite-list] UARS final death-throws Well it should have just skipped over-head and nothing to report from down-under... that I know of!
