at about 9 PM. Saw an eyepopper of a meteor at about 9:15. Long
tail, orange tint to it. I'm certainly no expert on meteors but sure
looked to me like this one made it into dark flight. I've seen a

Hi All,
I remember the ULTIMATE barrage of Perseids in 1993 I believe, or was it
1994wayyy up North at the boundary waters in Canada. We four guys got
back from some night fishing and got set-up to watch the show.
The skies were just crystal clear and black as any night I have ever seen!
I'm just thankful that no one decided to bake this into the meteorite cake I
see advertised every year in Tuscon...

That is a gorgeous rumuruti stone. Classification might still be

announcement of it.
Lately, I have seen some wonderful diogenites that are far different

I agree Mike. I've always found it amazing how different one Diogenite can
look from the next. After recently researching the Vestan meteorites I
personally find NWA 6256 to be an especially interesting one. I guess in
some respects you could say that this is what a Diogenite should look like
