After two complete readings you will enter a new phase or level of
meteorites... it is automatic.

Hi Michael,
Grady edited the later versions of the Catalogue - the earlier
versions were edited by someone else, I don't recall exactly who. Was
it Sears?
The Catalogue is new to me - I had heard of it and read about it and
longed for it, but only recently bought my own copy. It's been an
invaluable reference for the nerd in me - my wife looked at it briefly
and declared it was the driest reading she had ever seen. LOL
To me, it's a page-turner. I'm slowly working my way through it,
reading every entry. :)
The software is a great bonus as well.
Best regards and clear skies,
MikeG

Hi Mike,
It's still in print, but it's fantastically-expensive and is rarely
available used at discount. I paid over $220 for my copy.
You can order from Amazon and some major book sellers. I got mine
on
eBay from a seller in the UK, with shipping I think the total was
about $230. Beware buying used, because there is a CD-ROM in the
back
of the book (to install the whole shebang on your PC) and it's
sometimes missing from the used copies.

_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1247951296&sr=8-1
I consider it a must-have, along with Cosmic Debris, Rocks from
Space,
Meteorite Craters, MAPS, Meteorite Magazine, and Norton's Field
Guide.

Meteorites?"

According to the Met Bulletin -
Northern Ireland has 2 approved mets -
Bovedy (L3 fall 1969)
Crumlin (L5 fall 1902)
Grady's Catalogue of Meteorites reveals an additional 5
meteorites for
Ireland, in addition to the 2 for Northern Ireland - that makes a
total of 7.
Limerick (H5 fall, 1813)
Dundrum (H5 fall, 1865)
Mooresfort (H5 fall, 1810)
Killeter (H6 fall, 1844)
Pettiswood (unclassified fall, 1779)
Some observations - The Irish have sharp eyes. Every approved
meteorite from that nation is a witnessed fall. So, the original
poster that inquired about his suspect specimen could be right
in his
assertion - there are no FINDS from Ireland, only falls.

The photo caption says it's not magnetic and is very light. So
chances are (combined with the appearance), it's not a
meteorite.
It's an interesting little piece of metal that probably has a
good
story behind it, but I think it's terrestrial.
Best regards,

Hi Jim
Interesting object. It reminds me of a piece of bomb
shrapnel. It
does
not
appear to be a meteorite, but maybe you could remove a tiny
piece
and
do
a
nickel test.

Hello list members
I've been contacted by a fellow in Dublin who found this
object years ago and has always been curious about whether
it might
be
a meteorite.He states that it is about 2cms long(roughly 7/8
of an
inch
for our non-metric list members) and is light like
aluminium.I have
asked him whether it was magnetic and he said 'no' .
Of course I should have asked him whether it was
attracted to a magnet, so I did and waiting for his reponse
now.Because
this object is so small I've advised him that the best way
to test
may
be to file down a flat area and apply nitol to see if a
pattern
emerges.
Of course even this isn't 100% if it happened to be an
ataxite.
I told him I thought it was unlikely that the object was
meteoritic in nature but that I would pose the question to the
meteorite list and see what the experts think.So if you
could please
take a look and offer your opinions I'd appreciate it.
Jim Brady
