Please be on the lookout for a stolen meteorite as described by the New York State Police in the email below, any leads contact the investigator TPR A Y Heppner (607) 739-8796 SP Horseheads : Thank you, Michael Casper - Original Message - From: Angelique Heppner [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Angelique Heppner [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2008 5:11 PM Subject: Stolen Meteorite, NYSP SP Horseheads Case. Mr. Casper, This is the in best information and discription, I can provide regarding the stolen meteorite. Meteorite taken from private residence on Jay Rumsey Rd., T/Van Etten, between last week of July 2007, and first week of August 2007. Possible suspect, may be a son who lives in Long Island. Meteorite was in back yard of residence, and was used as a bird bath. Meteorite was approximately 20inches long, by 10 inches wide, by 12 inches high. Had curved indentation (use as bird bath), which was about 0.5 to 1inch deep on one side, and sloped to about 1- 1.5 inches deep. Meteorite had an oval shape, and was reddish brown in color. Compl. states that Cornell University verified it was a meteorite back in the early 1970's. Thanks for your help, TPR A Y Heppner (607) 739-8796 SP Horseheads.

So the guy has a verified real large meteorite, but continued to use the valuable item for a fracking BIRDBATH, and maybe his son stole it. Two bets here: the birdbath ain't a meteorite, and the complainant is mentally ill. If he IS using a real meteorite as a bird bath, I hope he never gets it back. __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Some 20 years ago it was, so they say, in the month of November, without doubt - that's what I was told in the villages of the strewn field. Whatever it was that happened then - one is led to presume a second meteorite fall on the same day or on the day after. According to recent research (isotope analysis), the two large specimens, which are in private Collection and in Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, do not originate from the Chiang-Khan fall. They are believed to have been transported into Thailand from Laos. Two small pieces from Thailand were analyzed, one is H4 tending to H5; one was determined to be H5 in Japan, whereas the large pieces are H6. Most of all, the noble gas contents of the large specimens differ extremely from those of the Chiang-Khan pieces!

Submit the report to the editor. You will need good evidence that the additional mass is really part of same fall.

However, this believe might be weighted against The above comments (and I acknowledge I could be wrong on this). I recognized your reference of source for purchase as a dealer was Almost certainly intended to protect me from any perception of shenanigans In this matter - and I thank you for your intent. However, I was fully aware Of all of the above comments and felt confident the major finder and the Meteoritical Bulletin were correct in their assessment of related falls, just as I am confident there is no intention to deceive, whatsoever, on the part of Bob Haag or Matt Morgan and that their belief in the authenticity of the stone mentioned is both sincere and reasonable. People will have to decide for themselves whom is correct and whom is in error. I sided with the primary finders and the Meteoritical Bulletin. I see no way to resolve this without individually typing the stone, but even that, like the Baygoria cluster Er... controversy will not be conclusive if this (other?) fall was also submitted and originally included as part of the Chiang-Khan fall, anyway - but the Meteoritical Bulletin does not see it as such.

Besides, some crystals have strange drawings on them. We dont have any technologies that can print such kind of drawings on crystal. We also found ferrum silicate that can not be produced anywhere but in the space, - the scientist states. The meteorites crash took place long time ago, in summer of 1908. An enormous volcanic ball rushed over the sky with terrifying wallop and thunder-like sound. All the citizens were frightened to death and scared to move out of their houses. A flight of a flamy alien ended up in an hour in deserted taiga area. In a matter of seconds an explosive wave spread for 40 kilometers, devastating everything living around. It was not until many years later that a Siberian scientist set up an expedition to place of the meteorites crash. They searched carefully through the river banks and found there unusual quartz boards. Mr. Lavbin states that such solid stones do not exist in the Earth. He said about the experiment that was taken on the crystals: scientists tried to put some of the same drawing that were on the stones initially with a laser machine. How surprised they were to realize that the laser (that usually cuts metal objects into pieces) managed to put just some faint stripes. The stones though have an entire system of different lines and circles on them. Scientists suppose that the stones used to be a part of the navigational system of a spaceship.

They found the physical and chemicalproperties define a coherent population with a geochemical affinity to Australasianmicrotektites and compatible Quaternary 40Ar-39Ar formation age.

The investigated grains contain multiple sets of decorated planar deformation features. ... The shocked quartz grains were found in the periphery of the central uplift in the northeastern sector of the crater, which most likely represents the cross range crater sector.² http://www.gsajournals.org/perlserv/?request=get-abstractdoi=10.113 0%2FG24287A.1 Yours, Paul H. __ __ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

All of the largest pieces are now on hold pending institutional and corporate negotiations. I am offering all of these at a 25% discount below the listed appraised value. We would like to see some of this fantastic lunar meteorite end up in private collections so will also entertain reasonable offers. I was unaware until recently that this luniate is the only gabbro from the lunar highlands ever found including those brought back on Apollo and Luna missions putting it into a class of its own. The more reports I get back from laboratories, the more impressive this gorgeous meteorite becomes and interest is now intense.

Mike, You werent the only one accused of scamming. I saw the Kascos on Winslow St. about 6 months ago and she was pissed with me because when I bought some pieces from her when it first fell I was paying her $1 and $2 per gram. At that point nobody had any idea how much there was or how valuable PF could become. The kick in the butt was that my significant other was upset with me paying $1/ gram. Well thats her regret. I should have bought every gram that I could.

He kept bidding against me (no problem, that is what America is about) but his argument was that I was an evil dealer who was going to sell it and make money while he wanted to keep a piece for his kids and for saving history. He kept telling the homeowner that I was scamming them, which was funny since I kept bidding higher than him, so I am not sure what that logic was supposed to prove.
