I thought about giving you a shout-out for the great display, but I'll go for a big Yale!
The display is really beautifully done. Congrats!

Dear Meteorite Friends, I am proud to announce the Grand Opening of a very special display in the Peabody Museum at Yale University! My loan of the main mass of lunar meteorite Northwest Africa 5000 (NWA 5000), combined with an ancient clay tablet from the Yale Babylonian Collection (MLC 1880 - 'Velocity of the Moon'), is sure to amaze and thrill the public throughout the year. In addition to these authentic specimens, there is a full size painted replica of NWA 5000 to compliment the display and offer a glimpse of what the uncut mass looked like before sharing samples with the world. I would like to thank everyone involved who helped make this special occasion possible. Without the dedication and enthusiasm from these professionals I would not have been able to share such a marvel of nature! The display is scheduled to run through November 30, 2016. Please share in my excitement by viewing a few images I present here: NWA 5000 display with Babylonian clay table 'Velocity of the Moon': http://www.naturesvault.net/Images/NWA5000/NWA5000-PeabodyMuseum1.jpg NWA 5000 Main Mass: http://www.naturesvault.net/Images/NWA5000/NWA5000-PeabodyMuseum2.jpg Babylonian clay tablet 'Velocity of the Moon': http://www.naturesvault.net/Images/NWA5000/NWA5000-PeabodyMuseum3.jpg NWA 5000 replica (actual size before cutting of mass): http://www.naturesvault.net/Images/NWA5000/NWA5000-PeabodyMuseum4.jpg Best Regards, Greg ==================== Greg Hupe The Hupe Collection gmh...@centurylink.net www.NaturesVault.net (Online Catalog & Reference Site) www.LunarRock.com (Online Planetary Meteorite Site) NaturesVault (Facebook, Pinterest & eBay) http://www.facebook.com/NaturesVault http://pinterest.com/NaturesVault IMCA 3163 ==================== Click here for my current eBay auctions: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZnaturesvault ______________________________________________ Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
