Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Times tektite of the month

2006-04-10 Thread Paul Harris

Hi Phil and Norm,

Nice to talk to you again Phil, It's been a while!  I did not have anyone 
ask any questions nor offer any possible solutions
to the questions I posted in the March 2003 edition so I thought I'd post 
the article again and throw out a different specimen...


Norm,  this is the type of specimen I'm interested.  It is a regular solid 
patty, not hollow (~ 2.4 g/cc)

http://www.meteorite.com/links/2003/March/tc4.jpg
http://www.meteorite.com/links/2003/March/tc3.jpg

Norm, please let me know how many you have and the price. (off list please)

Thank you,

Paul

Hi Norm and Paul,
It is an interesting  concept and I've wondered how to tell a true 
impact/weld from a bubble feature (collapsed or burst), especially when 
the feature is totally recessed.


Norm, do you agree with the assessment of the piece in the original March 
2003 edition as an impact/weld?


Feel free to respond back to the entire list at any point.

Paul,

I tried to send this off list, but the email link
doesn't work.

With all due respect, you are selling an idea as fact.
Ideas are fun and should be unconstrained.  But don't
present them as done deals.  I have dozens of
specimens of this sort.  They are so uniform that they
cannot be the random melding of two tektites.  I don't
claim to know what they are for sure (and I don't even
deny that you could be right, but I don't think so).
I have one that is developed  on a bubble shard and
the convex exterior feature corresponds with a concave
interior feature, suggesting it was a bubble about to
erupt. This is quite fatal to your interpretation.

Tektites are particularly fun because there are still
questions like this that even us kids have a shot at
solving.  But don't foist a simple idea, as fine as it
may be, on the believing public as fact.  It is a fine
idea.  And almost surely wrong.  Sorry.  But if you
want to buy a whole bunch of these, let me know!

[meteorite-list] New opening page for MeteoriteTimes

2006-04-10 Thread Paul Harris

Dear List,

Jim and I are just about finished with our overhaul of MeteoriteTimes.  The 
last few days
I've been working on the new opening page and thinking of all the wonderful 
meteorites that

have been in MeteoriteTimes and which ones to choose...

No matter what configuration of meteorites I put up, the page seemed to be 
lacking something.
It lacked the people behind the meteorites.  There is no way to include a 
picture of everyone
who has, or who will be in Meteoritetimes.  We've left a couple of buffer 
spots for the moment
as there are plans for a couple more people. This page is dedicated to 
everyone who contributes

to and who reads MeteoriteTimes.

http://www.meteoritetimes.com/

Thank you all,

Paul and Jim

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Times tektite of the month

2006-04-10 Thread Paul Harris

Norm,

Did you miss this statement from the first article?

"I invite you to please share your views and images of specimens that you 
have either
supporting or opposing so that we can all better understand these amazing 
objects."


And no I did not repeat it in the second article and yes I should 
have.  Gee maybe I
was in a hurry trying to get another issue of MeteoriteTimes up for people 
to enjoy.


Please spank my hand a little harder.  If this is how you share and help us 
understand

I really don't want your help.

Why don't you do something positive and write next months Tektite of the 
Month with
specimens you have and why you don't think they could be.  That's how we 
all learn.


I certainly won't be writing anything next month to stimulate thinking... 
why bother


Paul

[meteorite-list] Taza and caliche

2006-04-10 Thread Michel FRANCO
Dear list

I have received some Taza today.  I like it, its a an interesting meteorite
although not a fall. Quite rare to have a iron find with many many small
individuals.
But my purpose is not speaking about this meteorite, we could spend hours on
it.

Some individuals that I have received are covered with some rust, ( I
removed it with a gentle air blasting with vegetal abrasive ( bio !) ) and
with a white crusted depostit which I suspect to be caliche and that resists
to my vegetal abrasive sanding.


My request:
As anyone on the list a way to clean this crusted deposit on Taza's.

Best regards.

Here are 2083 grams of nice Baby Gibeon individuals

one kilo at a time. But I don't want sell

Are you sure they are Gibeons? Gibeon never has Caliche on them, yet many of
the pieces in your photo appear to have Caliche, which is normal for Canyon

Hi Martin:

Thanks for this, but when was the last time you took a math class? It is some 
time for me, but I can still add:

4 oz size = 160 to 800 doses 
Pellets are 80% sucrose, 20% lactose 
Homeopathic Medicine 

80% plus 20% = 100%, which does not leave much space for anything else.

[meteorite-list] Mysterious Boom Shakes Jackson County in Mississippi

Mysterious boom shakes Jackson County

Officials deduce it was accidental sonic boom

By KAREN NELSON
Sun Herald (Mississippi)
April 8, 2006

PASCAGOULA - People here haven't had anything rattle their world much
since Katrina.

But Friday morning, when "an extremely loud boom" shot through the air,
people filed out of businesses to look up, a deputy climbed onto the
roof of the courthouse scanning the horizon for plumes and the county
civil defense director rushed home from Biloxi.

The boom occurred at about 9:30 a.m. and shook windows of businesses
along U.S. 90, trailers near the beach, industry along the river and was
heard miles away in Hurley.

Don Stewart, chief deputy with the sheriff's department, was stopped at
a traffic light on Old Mobile Highway when it hit.

"I was in a Ford Expedition, that's a big vehicle, and it felt like
someone rear-ended me," Stewart said. "I got out and looked. There was
no vehicle behind me. I knew I wasn't going crazy."

Investigators and deputies evacuated the office trailers at the
courthouse, and Maj. Mike Robichaux climbed on the roof to try and spot
any source of the noise.

Butch Loper, county civil defense director, tried to work it by phone as
he rushed back to Jackson County. He was flooded with calls. His people
contacted the usual suspects, the chemical plants, the refinery and the
gas pipeline near Industrial Road. All reported nothing.

Signal International, the industry that repairs oil rigs along the
Pascagoula River, checked the rigs to make sure nothing had exploded,
said one employee.

Inside the Northrop Grumman shipyard, a supervisor of shipbuilding
employees said it sounded like someone had fallen off the roof.

Too loud to be a transformer and too widespread to be a train, it was
heard along Martin Bluff Road in Gautier.

Some people reported a second boom; others reported a sulfur smell.

By midday, Loper was satisfied it wasn't an industrial explosion.
Keesler Air Force Base, the Air National Guard at the state level and
Eglin Air Force Base near Pensacola reported they had no planes flying
in the area.

A man in downtown Moss Point said he missed the boom on Friday, but
claimed to have seen evidence of military jets dog-fighting at about
20,000 to 30,000 feet over the Gulf on Thursday.

On the ground Friday, Loper said he had patrol cars reporting from
several law enforcement agencies.

"We put full patrol out and found nothing," he said, so he favors the
sonic boom theory. He said the jets don't mean to create the boom, but
it happens sometimes when they make a tight turn.

"I know we can't find a trace of anything else," he said.

[meteorite-list] Large Ice Slab Lands in Oakland, California

2006-04-10 Thread Ron Baalke

http://www.insidebayarea.com/timesstar/localnews/ci_3691061

Large ice slab drops on Oakland

Frozen two-foot chunk from the sky digs three-foot hole in Bushrod Park

By William Brand and Ian Hoffman
Inside Bay Area
April 9, 2006

OAKLAND - Did it come from outer space? Was it a transport vehicle for
illegal aliens of the extraterrestrial kind? The tail of a comet grabbed
by gravity?

Jokes were flying Saturday morning after a block of solid ice, measuring
more than two feet on a side, crashed to earth with a tremendous bang,
digging a three-foot hole in the grass at Bushrod Park, 5800 Shattuck Ave.

But when the laughing stopped, an expert theorized it probably fell from
the wheel well of a plane landing at Oakland or San Francisco
International airports. It also could be an unexplained "ice fall," one
expert said. Big balls of ice sometimes fall from the sky without any
real explanation.

Wherever it came from, it's arrival was heart-stopping and dramatic.

Brooks and Judith Mencher said they were standing on their back porch on
59th Street near the park when they heard a sound like a very loud
rocket. "It kind of went 'whoosh!'" Brooks Mencher said.

The impact hole looked like it was created by a hand grenade, said
Oakland Police Sgt. Ron Lighten. "It knocked turf 20 feet away."

Lt. Charles Glass of the Oakland Fire Hazardous Materials Team said the
ice was pure water. " It didn't come from a toilet on a plane or
anything like that."

Glass said the ice that firefighters pulled from the hole was about the
size of the hole, three by three feet and two and a half feet deep. It
also broke a ceramic irrigation pipe at the bottom of the hole.

At Oakland International, a spokeswoman said she had no idea if a plane
might have been going overhead at that moment. "We'll have to wait until
Monday, when that information is available," she said.

Web sites that track commercial flights show a spike in arrivals at
Oakland International at about the time, 10:05 a.m., that the ice ball
put a hole in Bushrod Park. Two runway approaches for San Francisco
International also go almost directly overhead.

An operations manager at the Federal Aviation Administration in Los
Angeles said he had never heard of such a thing.

"I've been here 15 years and what usually falls from planes is 'blue
ice,' that's methylene glycol. They put it in airplane toilets.
Sometimes there are leaks and it falls out," he said.

But Tony Hirsch, a Columbus, Ohio-based aviation expert, said ice falls
of pure water are not uncommon: "Ice builds up on airplanes and falls
off as they prepare to land."

But Hirsch said the airplane "would have to descend through what we call
visible moisture, rain or clouds, for ice to build up." The skies were
partly cloudy Saturday morning.

Hirsch said a large chunk of ice could build up on the vertical
stabilizer or in a wheel well: "When they lower their landing gear, it
falls off."

As bad as Bay Area weather has been, the National Weather Service said
none of the storms has been violent enough to hatch a gigantic hailstone
on its own. "There's nothing meteorological that would create a piece
that big falling into Oakland," said weather service forecaster Diana
Henderson.

Electrical engineer Richard Spalding thinks there must be another
explanation. He tracks meteors as part of work on satellite instruments
and became interested in balls of ice that smash down from time to time.

"Ice falls do happen fairly frequently," Spalding said. "Just about
every year, there's a news item somewhere. I think it came from a
natural process that we're ignorant of, where it can form at altitude
and fall as a chunk," he said.

There's at least one recorded incident of ice from a plane hitting a
house. It happened in 2004 in Kent, near Seattle. Homeowner Troy Halte
said Saturday a chunk of ice made a basketball size hole in his roof and
the ice landed in softball-size pieces on this daughter's bed.

"Fortunately, nobody was home," he said.

[meteorite-list] Mars Exploration Rover Update - April 7, 2006

2006-04-10 Thread Ron Baalke

http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status.html#opportunity

OPPORTUNITY UPDATE: Ripples and Outcrops - sol 778-784, Apr 07, 2006:

Opportunity is healthy and is continuing to drive toward "Victoria
Crater." Thanks to talented rover planners and sturdy construction, the
rover covered a distance totaling about 170 meters (558 feet) during the
week. The scenery has been beautiful and consistent: lots of ripples
sprinkled with a dash of outcrops.

Sol-by-sol summaries:

Sol 778 (April 2, 2006): Opportunity drove 25.3 meters (83 feet) and
used its navigation and panoramic cameras to image the area after the
drive. The rover also observed the atmosphere.

Sol 779: The rover took 13-filter panoramic camera images to survey the
ground near it. The miniature thermal emission spectrometer observed the
sky and ground.

Sol 780: Opportunity drove 58.4 meters (192 feet), took navigation and
panoramic camera images of the post-drive area, and conducted
atmospheric and remote sensing.

Sol 781: The rover drove 32 meters (105 feet), used its navigation and
panoramic cameras to image the post drive-area, and conducted
atmospheric remote sensing.

Sol 782: Opportunity drove 45 meters (148 feet), used its navigation and
panoramic cameras to image the post-drive area, and conducted
atmospheric remote sensing.

Sols 783 and 784 (April 7 and 8, 2006): These sols' plans are for
targeted remote sensing.

Total odometry: 7,249 meters (4.5 miles) as of end of sol 782.
