Re: [meteorite-list] Does this NWA look familiar to anyone?
If this dealer screwed you by omission you have ever right to beef, not much recourse other than that though. I just wonder why he advertised it as unclassified and sent it with an NWA 869 label. Maybe he is confused but I doubt it. Maybe he bought it as 869 but did think it was when he got it and did not want to sell it as 869 if he doubted it. It is either keep it, through it away, or sell it as an unclassified piece. I would, but I would have explained the situation! I have bought unclassified stuff from big dealers that every one says is 869. Would you have a problem if you bought an unclassified and it turned out to be lunar? : ) Thanks, Tom peregrineflier IMCA 6168 http://www.frontiernet.net/~peregrineflier/Peregrineflier.htm - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Thursday, January 27, 2005 4:00 PM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Does this NWA look familiar to anyone?

It has a very dark, possibly greenish matrix, brecciation, and as far as I can tell from the photos, it seem to have a low metal content. I of course can take much better photos when it reaches me, but I was hoping it might jump out at someone. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=6506068469 Update on this: before the piece arrived I was browsing Ebay and came across a seller with several slices of NWA 787 which looked very similar to my unknown piece. I did a quick Google search, though, and found that NWA 787 is a probable synonym for NWA 869. So the lot of pieces (I bought several other items from the seller at the same time) arrived today, and the very card that came with it labeled it as NWA 869! So I'm torn on this issue. While on the one hand it seems to me pretty dishonest by the seller to clearly call it unclassified in the auction (possibly as an deliberate attempt to make it seem more unusual rather than a simple mistake), on the other hand it still is a beautiful piece with significant flow features and is probably well worth the slightly less than 50 cents per gram that I paid for it. (Which is more than three times more than I have paid for NWA 869 in the past, but still cheaper than the $3-ish per gram the other seller wanted for the similar NWA 787.) Look at these scans I made of the piece now that I have it (actual piece not quite as contrasty as scan makes it look). http://webpages.charter.net/garrison6328/nwa869_orientedslice_top.jpg http://webpages.charter.net/garrison6328/nwa869_orientedslice_bottom.jpg So how would you handle this-- be upset with the seller for calling it unclassified when it was NWA 869, or just be happy with the piece and let it slide? __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Re: [meteorite-list] 'Shooting Stars' On Mars: Messages From A Meteorite
Hi list, I have been into model rockets for a very long time. I did a lot of thinking and consulting and figured out a way to retrieve Martian meteorites! I am building a rocket and rover that will be launched from my back yard this weekend. I am sending my modified RC-10 remote controlled truck as the rover, it has an arm with a magnet attached that will collect the meteorites and a sample return capsule that can return 1 kilo of meteorites and land in a predetermined and secret landing spot a few miles from my home. With the help of Tim the tool man Taylor who modified my rocket and rover for performance, this entire trip will take only a week. If you want one of these meteorites, contact me as soon as possible, I am sure they will go quick! I can not be sure of what classification of meteorites will be collected, I can not guarantee what type you will receive, except that it will be a meteorite from the surface of mars. Also, the price per gram can not be determined by type, I will just give a flat rate of $50 per gram. Yes that is cheap, but the mission has cost me a total of 54 bucks so far, the most expensive part is the rover, which I already had, so you benefit from the savings! You will have to pay up front. Like all space travel, there will be financial, mechanical and human life at risk so you will be taking a $50 risk to get one of these meteorites, but I think it is a small risk for what you get if the mission goes as planned! If interested, you can just paypal me at my email address. Please do keep in mind that there is a possibility the mission will not go as planned and there are no refunds, remember there is always a risk in space travel! Also, with only 1k available, it will be first to pay, first served! You do not have time to think, just go to paypal and pay me now, you can always think about it later!

The pitted, basketball-size meteorite is mostly made of iron and nickel, as detected by the rover's set of onboard spectrometers -- devices that map the presence of different elements on the surface of Mars. Meteors, often called shooting stars have been seen blazing through the Martian sky by both Opportunity and its sister ship, Spirit, now rolling through the Columbia Hills at Gusev Crater. But finding the meteorite was a surprise to scientists running the dual Mars Exploration Rover effort. The researchers now wonder just how prolific meteorites might be, perhaps sitting there strewn across the expanse of Meridiani Planum. Sitting there a very long time We're done with the meteorite, said Steve Squyres from Cornell University, and the leader of the science team for the Mars Exploration Rover (MER) mission. Squyres told SPACE.com that further study of nearby entry shield hardware that slammed onto Mars during Opportunity's landing is on tap, followed by setting sail to the south toward a circular feature called Vostok. Discovering the meteorite has raised some speculation it might have been dislodged from a different locale -- unmarsed so to speak -- and tossed to its present position by the high-speed impact of Opportunity's entry shield, but Squyres said there was no morphologic evidence for disturbance of soil around the meteorite. It has been sitting there a very long time, Squyres said. Difficult questions to answer There are a number of things that make the meteorite find a very scientifically interesting and important find, said planetary geologist, Bradley Jolliff of Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri and a MER science team member. From the well-preserved shape and form of cuspate marks and 'thumb-print'-like cavities, it is possible to say something about the velocity and atmospheric effects that this meteorite experienced when it fell, Jolliff said. How fast the meteorite struck Mars, and just how thick was the martian atmosphere during its fall are difficult questions to answer. But careful study will likely provide some constraints. The external shapes and overall morphology suggest that this was not a piece broken off from a larger object, but that this is the entire meteorite, Jolliff told SPACE.com. Recent event or ancient?

[meteorite-list] I need some excitement, trade?
Hey list, life is getting extra boring here in little old Kingman, I need some excitement and nothing excites me more than a trade, well that's not completely true, but It may be unclassified, but is it one of my nicer meteorites. You have seen it before, but it is so much nicer in person! It is brecciaed with a light gray fine matrix full of odd shaped inclusions and a white part that has a rougher texture and has some actual chondrules. Before you say it looks like NWA 869 you had better take a gander at it's crust, if it is NWA869 then it has the nicest blackest and freshest crust ever to grace an 869!!! It weighs in at an even 33 grams but size is not every thing, this thing is nicer than a lot of meteorites twice it's size!!! : ) If you like it, I can send bigger pics to you. All I am looking for is a nice crusted complete individual that looks nice, or an iron. : ) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v609/peregrineflier/DSCN0527.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v609/peregrineflier/DSCN0517.jpg Thanks, Tom peregrineflier IMCA 6168 http://www.frontiernet.net/~peregrineflier/Peregrineflier.htm __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Mars Rover Discovers A Potential Meteorite
Hey List, Nininger said there should be ten meteorites on every square mile of earth. The rate, I would think would be higher on mars, with a less dense atmosphere. Without the weathering and such, I would think the meteorites would stay in one place and survive a lot longer, so I would think the rovers should be able to find them all over the place. But, what do I know? : ) Thanks, Tom peregrineflier IMCA 6168 http://www.frontiernet.net/~peregrineflier/Peregrineflier.htm - Original Message - From: Sterling K. Webb [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Meteorite Mailing List meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Friday, January 14, 2005 11:23 PM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Mars Rover Discovers A Potential Meteorite Hi, I have nothing to contribute as to whether the object is or is not a meteorite, but there is one thing about discovering a meteorite on Mars that disturbs me. The performance of the rovers have greatly exceeded their planned lifetime and reach, but even so, the two them have only covered a few thousands of meters. Assuming that their cameras only scan closely objects within a few hundred meters of their position as they move along, the total land area scanned in detail by the rovers can only amount to one square kilometer or maybe two. (Five kilometers of travel times 200 meters of total sideview equals one square kilometer.) What are the odds of finding a good-sized meteorite in ANY 1 or 2 square kilometers? Since we can assume the choice of Martian location is random, let's re-phrase that to: What are the odds of finding a a good-sized meteorite in EVERY 1 or 2 square kilometers of Mars? Frankly, it would mean that meteorites are incredibly abundant on Mars. It would mean a very high fall rate. It would mean meteorites survive for a very long time in the Martian environment. But one big meteorite per square kilometer would mean that Mars has tens of millions of big meteorites on its surface. And by the normal power law distribution, there should be hundreds of millions of meteorites 1/3 this size and billions 1/10th this size and a million meteorites three times this size, and so on. That's a helluva lot of meteorites! (And you thought NWA's would flood the market...) Or maybe the rovers are just incredibly lucky meteorite hunters? (Can I rent one?) Yes, it could just be a fluke, wild luck, like winning the lottery, but the entire mission (despite being targeted at potential formerly wet sites), like all missions, is based on the principle that a random sample is in the long run a representative sample. So, it sits there on its sand dune. If that sand dune were one square kilometer of North West Africa picked at random, what are the odds there'd be a meteorite sitting on it? Is it too good to be true? Sterling K.

The rover first glimpsed the rock two weeks ago as it approached the remains of its heat shield, which plummeted to Mars during the rover's descent through the atmosphere in January 2004. The object, about the size of a potato, caught the eyes of ground controllers because of its unusual pitted surface. We've been seeing little rocks on the plain since the start of the mission, says Steven Squyres at Cornell University, the Mars rovers' chief scientist. We all just kind of assumed they're little pieces of Martian basalt. But Opportunity's infrared spectrometer, called Mini-TES, saw that this object did not radiate thermal energy at the frequencies expected of typical Martian rocks, leading scientists to hypothesise that the object might in fact be a meteorite rich in metal. Opportunity has stayed next to the object and will continue making measurements over the weekend to confirm whether this is indeed a meteorite. Squyres says they should have the results by Monday or Tuesday. It could be any number of things if somehow we got faked out by the Mini-TES data, Squyres cautions. Unexpected circumstances Meteorites are objects that survive the - sometimes fiery - fall to a planet's surface from space. Only about 2% of the meteorites that land on Earth are made of nickel and iron. The rest are made of rock. Squyres says that the rover's rock abrasion tool, which is used to grind away the surface of rocks, had never been tested against a metal like nickel. I didn't see this coming, he told New Scientist. Opportunity will celebrate its first birthday on the Martian surface on 25 January. So far, it has trekked over 2000 metres around Meridiani

Hi Bill, What is born poor? Being born poor is just that, I was born into a poor ($) family, food stamps and midi-care, your typical welfare family. You have a PC and I assume you aren't illegally connected to a power source in an alley living in a box. You have a PC, no, my daughter has a PC thanks to her grand parents on her moms side, and she is sweet enough to let me use it. I assume you aren't illegally connected to a power source in an alley living in a box. Don't assume, I live in a mobile home, as close as you can get to a card board box, only one step above!

You can't take them with you even when you can afford only the best, and if you do take them with you, the graverobbers will soon do their thing:-) They are ONLY rocks, the objects of desire. Desire is never satisfied. Get a new rock, enjoy it for a short time, and desire returns. A large or valuable meteorite collection will never be the foundation of true happieness. Desire attaches itself to the objects it desires and demands to be fed still more. Give ebay a break for a spell. Stop looking at meteorites for a spell.

I don't get ebay, one well known over seas seller has a $25 shipping fee, that's fine, but if another seller sells an identical meteorite at the same starting price, but with $2 shipping, form what I have seen, the meteorites will sell for the same amount lets say $15 in the end, even though they have to pay $23 more in shipping, do they just not care what the shipping charges are?

Hi Tom and list, the bickering does not bother me, I just don't read them. : ) The list could use some bickering right now, at least there would be something in my inbox! : ) As for my collecting, it is just not a good time to be collecting meteorites for me (not unusual). Trying to be a single dad (or mom) now days is tough. All my money (and them some) goes towards raising my kid. I am selling my meteorites to make ends meet. My collection is small to start with and is hardly worth calling a collection anymore! The bright side, I don't have to display them, I don't have anything worth looking at! : ) So, it is depressing to see so many nice meteorites for sale and can't even consider trying to buy it, or wait, I can, my kid does not need to eat this month, no wait, she does! My dad responsibilities have to come way before my collection. So I need to focus my thoughts on my most important task (for now) my kid.

Since on his web site he is trying to sell 2-4 gram pieces of his messenger stone for $50 each, I'm thinking that he might want the NWAs to try and sell as pieces of his whatever the heck piece of junk that is. __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] Yoer opinion needed, please
Hello List, I have been looking at all my meteorites looking at the crusts. This stone I found has the best possible crust I have ever seen on a rock. But, I was not convinced, I thought I would take it to Tucson ( if the good lord gives me a way to go). But I was looking at it tonight and noticed something weird, at least for a rock (as far as I know). In the first pic there is a break in the upper right hand corner. I was looking at it carefully and noticed what looks like a roll over rim!!! (second pic). This whole area was covered in caliche so it was hard to see. what do you all think? Has anyone seen a roll over rim on a rock? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v609/peregrineflier/DSCN0151.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v609/peregrineflier/DSCN0154.jpg Thanks, Tom peregrineflier IMCA 6168 http://www.frontiernet.net/~peregrineflier/Peregrineflier.htm __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Re: [meteorite-list] Clarifying some things
Hi all just wondering, the Pellisons are implying that if you ever bought a NWA then you are supporting terrorist. How about a class action law suit against them for slander? Everyone who owns a NWA can get involved. I am one of many who do not like that being said about me. If it is true that we are supporting terrorist, then it is a good thing, if they are out collecting our new meteorites, they are to busy to blow anything up! Now we know why nothing has happened since 9/11, we are keeping them to busy, thanks all you NWA owners!

I did not study philosophy though in the University. Life is not perfect, we should all get along but don't. The Pellisons are a joke, but a dirty one that has the potential to come back to haunt us all. What if they stir the pot so much that one of us goes to a North African country and does not come back? Where will that put the collectors market? Or how will it benefit the scientific world, who have benefited so much from this gold rush of new meteorites of some of the rarest and never before seen types?

[meteorite-list] fireball???
Hello list, I walked out my front door a couple of nights ago and saw a huge red streak about parallel to the horizon. It was bright red and fast. This thing was huge, not anything like any fireball I had ever seen. I passed it off as some kind of reflection or something, maybe I was seeing things. It was between trees and stuff, so Today I ran into a friend that knows I am into meteorites and he said he saw the same thing, but with an unobstructed view. He said he saw where it hit, but we all know better. : ) But it does seem to confirm it was a fireball.

We shouldn't allow a few rotten apples to spoil our hobby - so please read what Bruno Carine have to say since it affects us all, and a few of us, more directly.

You may reach them via: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Best, Norbert -Original Message- Dear List Members, this subject is of high interest as it will affect all of us including the scientists. What the Pellissons are doing is just unbelievable, they already did contact the French interior Ministry as well as the Customs offices in different countries. They are linking the meteorite community to terrorism in different ways. They did send to major medias a 64 pages document full of crap with parts of YOUR private and public mails to try to establish that nobody but themselves have the right to sell meteorites!! Be aware than in a close future we will all have problems shipping or crossing borders with meteorites, thanks to them! Just try a Google search for money for terrorism and you will get straight to their page, listed in first place see it here: http://www.google.fr/search?hl=frq=%22money+for+terrorism%22meta= They are using metanames and cross linking with pages about horrible things just to attract interest on them. You all know that we did bring them to court, they already have been sentenced in emergency during the last Tucson show. Now we are driving them to serious things, we received their list of pseudo arguments from our attorneys. Here is the list of the people they are involving in front of the Judge and the Lyon's Court (the second biggest in France), they are using parts of your public and private emails to try to explain why meteorites (except of their own) are funding terrorism.

As an example they are trying to explain that the MNHN of Paris did send Michel Franco to build a new network for funding Al Queda and they sent that to the French medias...
