RE: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Photos

Thank you Hanno for sharing these wonderful photos from Berlin's Humbold 
University!
I had no idea there are so many meteorites found in Germany and Mitteleuropa 
(posters)!
Braunau looks amazing and so does Hohenlangenberg. What fusion crust!
It looks like it could be another Ibbenbüren.
And Nentmannsdorf, beautiful, but the third photo on page 8, I can make it  
out. It must be an iron with a lot of reflection of a light?

Hallo,
last weekend I made a 3 day trip to Berlin and visited the Humbold 
University where they have some very famous and historic meteorites on 
display.
I took lots of photos and put them on my homepage.
I am sure you have never seen most of these meteorites in that size, most 
only in tiny little pieces.
If you want to take a look, than go to
www.strufe.net
choose your language and than klick the button "Berlin HUB 2004"
There you will find 9 pages full of nice meteorites.

Have fun to see them.

Re: [meteorite-list] clarafication on my meteorite sale and othermatters

2004-10-02 Thread JKG
Steve, List and Al,
I have to agree with Al on this one. Over the past several years, those who 
have dealt with the meteorite community in a negative way and have been 
less than honest have been taken to task on the Meteorite List. Steve 
shouldn't be an exception.
I know there are a bunch of folks out there(myself included) who have 
encouraged Steve to produces better descriptions, add pictures and correct 
weights to his sales (Ebay and others) and deal honestly with the people he 
does business with. While some of the problems do get corrected, it seems 
that they creep back after a while.  I'm sorry to say that I think the true 
character of anyone, including Steve, can be determined by their behavior 
better than it can be by their words.
What's it going to be, Steve?

Best,
JKGwilliam

[meteorite-list] Mysterious Flash Of Light Reported in Detroit Sky

2004-10-02 Thread Ron Baalke


http://www.clickondetroit.com/news/3774616/detail.html

Drivers Report Mysterious Flash Of Light In Sky
Radio Show Host Receives Dozens Of Calls

Click On Detroit
September 30, 2004

A local radio station's phone lines lit up Thursday morning 
after motorists reported seeing a mysterious flash of light 
in the sky, Local 4 reported. 
 
Several drivers in the area of Interstate 275 and Interstate 94 
called into WOMC radio at about 5:45 a.m. to report an 
unidentified light flashing in the sky. 

"It was a bright flash, almost like a huge flashlight, almost 
like a generator going off," said one caller.  

The host of the radio station's morning show, Dick Purtan, said 
he had no answer to what people had witnessed in the sky. 

"The first thing that I thought of was that this was possibly 
the asteroid, this big rock that's about 3 miles long and a 
mile-and-a-half wide that actually came within a million miles 
of earth this morning, but the trouble is they say that it's 
not visible," Purtan said. 

Officials at the Selfridge Air National Guard Base reported no 
flying this morning, so there were no records or photographs 
taken that may have identified the flash of light. 

Metro airport also had no trace of the light flash because the 
airport's radar readings only cover a 40-mile radius, Local 4 
reported. 

The National Weather Service in Cleveland told Local 4 that the 
mysterious light may have been moonbeams poking through the clouds. 

Local 4 attempted to contact the North American Aerospace Defense 
Command, which protects the airspace over the United States and 
Canada. NORAD had yet to return calls concerning the mysterious 
light.

Hi List
Thought some of you might be interested in an article in The Geochemical News 
July 2004 issue about an experiment that was aboard the ill-fated Columbia 
shuttle. The article is titled; An Investigation, Interrupted: Panspermia, 
ALH84001, and the Columbia Shuttle Disaster by Landau, Yuval E. pp 15-17. 
Interesting reading about the results of the experiment that was recovered in the 
wreckage. Also for those total science geeks it also has a very interesting article 
on the ten most notable geochemists of the 20th century.

Hi Peter

That depends on what you mean by official. At the time of the
publication of the book Jan 04 no meteorites had been published by the
Meteoritical Society as IIG. Additionally no technical
papers have been published that make an argument for this new grouplet.
That is why I have not included it in the latest edition of the book.
Finally in Aug 2004 MB 88 was published with
Guanco as the first IIG classified meteorite.
As you might have noticed the listing in the book as an HEX-Og was in
error. It should a HEX-Ogg or coarsest octahedrite. Hopefully a paper
will be published before the next edition so it can
be listed as a IIG.

Hope that helps.

Mike

Hello Peter, hi again List,

Just go to David Weir's website (Tombigbee River and Guanaco) and
your confusion will dissipate like early morning mist in the warm
sunshine of an Indian Summer morning sun :-)

My 26.5-gram Guanaco slice (purchased from Rodrigo Martinez) looks
almost like Twannberg with its large, massive schreibersite inclusion
and its Neumann lines. There is an interesting, oval, almost chondrule-
like FeNi inclusion inside the schreibersite area. Beautiful!

Best wishes,

Bernd

Hi list,

I'm a bit confused.
In the book Meteorites from A to Z(2nd ed.), page 119 it says:

Twannberg IRUNGR HEX-Og.

First: I'm not sure if the new iron group II G is official now or not.
Second: How can it be an Og if it's a hexahedrite?

Maybe it's too close to midnight;-)

Thanks for any help!
