Hi Listees=2C Meteorite Collectors=2C Scientists=2C Meteorite Junkies=2C=
Addicts &=20
All Meteorite Enthusiasts=2C
A long while ago I discussed an idea for a central meteorite website wit=
h=20
some community members about the creation of a central hub of meteorite=
=20
knowledge and information database in which everyone could participate a=
nd=20
contribute through a community of like minded individuals. This of cours=
e=20
would be for the furtherance of the science and hobby of meteoritics=2C=
=20
meteorite collecting=2C meteorite hunting=2C and the meteorite industry =
as a=20
whole.
A website that would provide an active and evolving database of=20
encyclopedic meteorite knowledge and information for the hobbiest=2C=20
scientist and even more so for the curious=2C as they are the new meteor=
ite=20
enthusiasts and possible future meteoriticists.
As the world learns more about meteorites=2C asteroids=2C comets=2C and =
the=20
universe in relation to meteorites what better way to grow this knowledg=
e=20
base than through the first and only meteorite related wiki. For those o=
f=20
you who are unfamiliar with what a wiki is=2C it's an online collaborati=
ve=20
effort to compile information in a community type environment.
Introducing The Meteorite Wiki: www.meteoritewiki.com
The Meteorite Wiki runs on the same software that runs the world famous=
=20
and beloved Wikipedia.org website=2C and is robust and feature rich enou=
gh=20
to provide the perfect venue to compile the worlds meteorite information=
=20
into one easy and convenient online database.
Mission Statement: To compile knowledge and share the enjoyment of=20
meteorite science & hobby through an open community wiki in which everyo=
ne=20
interested can participate & contribute to the growth of the knowledge o=
f=20
meteorites.
Enjoy...

love to have you contibute your articles=2C papers=2C photos=2C video or=
