May I be so dumb in response to the question" What happens if China makes
first contact" First there is a presupposition that first contact hasn't
already been made...
It would be fun to imagine that any nation would make an announcement.

If I may be so bold I would like to suggest a more recent book/documentary.

Saw the movie, have the book - Absolutely mind blowing!

[meteorite-list] Met Bulletin Update : Martian Iron Meteorites

2017-11-21 Thread Galactic Stone & Ironworks via Meteorite-list 
MARTIAN IRON METEORITES officially approved by NonCom and published in
the Met Bull today. Interesting meteorites discovered by NASA's
Curiosity rover on Mars.

Text from the write-up on Aeolis Mons 001 :

Aeolis Mons 001
Mars : (-4.70156176, 137.3560462)
Find: 2016 Oct 30
Classification: Iron meteorite

History: The MSL rover Curiosity observed a very small rock informally
named Egg Rock (Henceforth Aeolis Mons 001), on sol 1505. The rock was
about 2.5 m from the rover, which was close enough to interrogate with
Mastcam and ChemCam (LIBS chemical analysis and RMI). Aeolis Mons 001
is small (4-5 cm) rounded, and apparently hemispherical. It was seen
only from one side. Another small fragment in the same rover location
appears in MastCam imagery, identified by multispectral analysis
(Wellington et al., 2017) but was not further investigated.

Physical characteristics: Aeolis Mons 001 has a lustrous blue-gray
color and contains oval shaped depressions consistent with regmaglypts
as well as elongated hollows that could result from ablation during
entry or in situ differential erosion of less-resistant inclusions. At
high resolution, the surface is smooth. The mass of the meteorite is
estimated to be ~250 g.

Geochemistry: Mastcam color images reveal the presence of subtle
surface patches on the surface, consistent with ferric materials,
while other regions have reflectance spectra consistent with
laboratory spectra of fresh iron meteorites (Johnson et al. 2016,
Wellington et al. 2017). Chemistry and mineralogy consistent with iron
meteorites are inferred from ChemCam analyses. Aeolis Mons 001 was
interrogated using a 3x3 ChemCam Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy
(LIBS) raster with accompanying Remote Micro-Imager (RMI) images.

The ChemCam elemental spectra show both iron and nickel peaks at all
nine points (Meslin et al., 2017). Comparison of these spectra with
spectra measured on several iron meteorites with a replica of ChemCam
in the laboratory at the Institut de Recherche en Astrophysique et
Planétologie (IRAP) indicate that Aeolis Mons 001 is mostly made of
kamacite and contains ~8 wt. % Ni. One point (#9) along the edge of an
elongated cavity also exhibits P peaks and is enriched in Ni (Fig. 3).
The colocation of Fe, Ni, and P in point #9 suggests the presence of
schreibersite, (Fe,Ni)3P on the rim of this cavity.

Classification: Iron meteorite

Specimens: Left in situ on Mars

[meteorite-list] Ad - NR Auctions Ending - Show Displays/Saw Available

2017-11-21 Thread Adam Hupe via Meteorite-list 

Dear List Members,

I have some excellent no reserve auctions ending this evening and 
tomorrow night.  I finished my my final cutting session on the world's 
highest rated and most documented lunar meteorite, NWA 5000 yesterday so 
supply is limited.


I will finish my final cutting sessions on Martian material soon and 
will have no further need for a precision Buehler Isomet Wafering saw if 
anybody is interested.  I have no plans of ever selling at any more 
shows again so if you are interested in made in the U.S.A. aluminum 
display show cases, please let me know and I will dig them out of my 
warehouse and take images of them.  I believe there are six large silver 
flat displays with glass tops still in their shipping boxes that were 
used once, one well used gold flat Arizona Case display and one very 
nice gold Arizona Case display tower with shelf and halogen lighting.


Everybody loves no reserve auctions where buyers get to set the price!
