More Evidence Life Could Have Come From Beyond

A new study reveals bacteria can survive Atmospheric Entry

 By Jason Tetro  Posted Yesterday at 10:00am

Lithopanspermia. The word is a mouthful but represents one of the most
intriguing theories about the origin of life on Earth. Quite literally,
it means life began from an extraterrestrial source and brought here by
hitching a ride on a rock, more specifically, a meteorite. The idea the
entirety of biological life coming from afar makes for fantastic sci-fi
fodder but the story proving it as possible fact has been even more
entertaining.

[meteorite-list] Houston, We Have GEOLOGY!

2015-07-15 Thread Sterling K. Webb via Meteorite-list
Dear List,
 
Behold, the First Closeup Pictures
From the Pluto Flyby Are Here
http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/behold-first-closeup-pictures-p
luto-flyby-are-here-180955934/#RCIFFlhitGcKgUWc.99

Color Intensification images
of Pluto and Charon:
http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/where-will-new-horizons-probe-g
o-after-pluto-180955929/
 
Pluto as interesting as a billiard
ball, you say? Well, it appears to
have GEOLOGY, mountains 11,000
feel tall, smooth plains with old
submerged craters in them, folded
ridges, and valleys, a rille or two,
in a word, geology, possibly orogeny. 
And if orogeny comes to mind, can
tectonics be far behind?

6ce07688a73d/nh-plutosurface.jpg__800x600_q85_crop.jpg
 
Charon has a trench or chasm that's
reminiscent of the Valles Marinaris
on Mars, and a dark polar cap that's
already unofficially named... MORDOR.

All these images are from:
http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/where-will-new-horizons-probe-g
o-after-pluto-180955929/
 
And, on a humorous note, Neil Da
Grass Tyson, a well-known hit-man
for the Eight-Planet Syndicate Mob,
is unimpressed by Pluto. He says it's 
because Pluto crosses the orbit of
Neptune for 20 years out of its 248
year orbit. 

Of course, this is not true, due to 
their differences in orbital inclination 
--- at no point do they intersect. 
Interestingly enough, that is also 
not one of those IAU criteria he 
promoted the acceptance of. But 
it's funny:
http://www.wired.com/2015/07/tyson-colbert-pluto/
 
Because of the differences in their
inclination and the 3:2 resonance
they are in, the actual closest Pluto 
and Neptune can possibly approach 
is 17.7 AU, or 1,645,317,790 miles 
(more or less).
 
The closest Pluto comes to Neptune
is about the same as the closest Earth
ever comes to Uranus. Does that mean
Uranus isn't a planet either? 
http://www.quora.com/Will-Neptune-and-Pluto-ever-collide-in-their-orbits

Or that the Earth isn't one?

Puzzling, isn't it?

Hi Mike,

Sterling was a victim of character line limits for the mailing list. Editing 
the links
so that they're all on the same line works. Might try angle brackets around it
to see if Met-List will keep the link together, e.g.:
