Re: [meteorite-list] Simultaneous Impact Double Crater Possibly Found on Mars

 I've personally witnessed a corollary but slightly smaller set of depressions 
like that on earth. I took my fianc`e to the beach and after applying suntan 
lotion to her back, she rolled over and well it is remarkably obvious I 
think.
  
I do miss her sometimes.

[meteorite-list] Contest - Name this person, win a free shergottite specimen!

[Michael Gilmer]

Hi Listees,

Time for a little bit of silly fun.  The first person to respond to me
with the correct answer will win a free Bessey Speck of NWA 2975
Martian shergottite.

Question : Reading the rambling quote below, who does it remind you of?

"...I'm on a drug called meteorites, and it's not available. If you
tried it once, your face would melt off and your children would weep
over your exploded body. I don't collect meteorites the same way that
ordinary, non-special people do - they don't have kamacite blood and
achondritic DNA. I'm tired of pretending I'm not a totally-bitchin
space rock star from Mars. I'm riding a tsunami of meteorites on a
pallasite surfboard.  I'm on a roll with meteorites. My collection
makes Nininger, Monnig, and Huss look like droopy-eyed, armless
children.  Winning!"

Best regards and happy huntings,

MikeG

Re: [meteorite-list] ALH 84001

[E.P. Grondine]

Hi all  - 

Some of you may remember several years back my several part tale of my dramatic 
involvement (and lack therof) in the breaking of the ALH84001 fossils story. 

For what its worth, I think that those strcutures are fossils, based on my 
conversation at that time with Dr. MacKay's SEM specialist. He found that the 
PHAs were bound by the structures' walls, and the later finds of magnetite 
grains in the structure appear to me as a below surface sensory mechanism.

I tend to go with Marc on this news, and with his analysis of how the error 
occured.

[meteorite-list] ID card/website/etc

[Barrett]

I was really surprised at how many e-mails I got asking for the template I
use for my specimen ID cards.
To make it easier for everyone, I uploaded a photo example to my website so
you can see it easier.
If anyone else would like the template for it, just ask. Include your
information you'd like on the bottom line and I can modify it for you.
A couple have asked for more room on the card for other things. If I did
this the card size would either have to increased, or the printing would
have to be smaller.
I'm not an expert in Adobe Acrobat, but if you have a specific "want", let
me know and I'll do my best.
I was also asked how much I am charging for this...answer NOTHING. Cheap
enough? LOL
Thanks again and happy hunting,
Barrett

[meteorite-list] My Collection - big sale on ebay :(

[Marcin Cimala]

My tears drop, my meteorites go to ebay

Im selling part of my very very old meteorite colection mostly from 
1999-2002 when I bough my first meteorites from Andrzej Pilski and later my 
first specimens from eBay when I pay for them sending money in letters, 
becouse Poland have no PayPal or other reasonable  transfer for small sum of 
money. That was beautifull times when my Dhofar 018 Howardite was breath 
taking and truly rare specimen for everyone or my 10kg Sahara 99477 was the 
biggest chondrite in polish private collection. Times when Polandmet was 
born... Ech...lots of memories...


I have here some impossible and hard to get specimens. Some typical and some 
ordinary specimens. But most of them was purchased beetween 1999 and 2002 so 
this is now true history. Some was purchased from ebay, some during 
memorable Gifhorn fairs and some from my first source of meteorites, Mr 
Andrzej Pilski, actual secretary of IMCA !!!


Can u imagine, that in 1997 Andrzej know me only from letters (not emails :) 
he sending me from time to time several meteorites via post, then I choose 
what I wanted to buy, and I send him back rest of material + money ? :) That 
was times of big trust. Simple times when each weathered chondrite was 
amazing and special. I still have his hand written letters to me when he 
describe meteorites that he alredy send me. Lol really good memories :D


OK lets back to brutal reality of lifeless ebay.
I set 7 days auctions with start price. YOU will decide If my prices are 
correct, too cheap or too expensive. :)
But to be honest, several I selling cheaper than I bough them 10 years ago 
:) Now I know, I should invest in gold, land or guns but now its too late 
for changes.

Re: [meteorite-list] ALH 84001

[Shawn Alan]

Hello Listers,

There is a great documentary by National Geographic / Naked Science called 
Alien Falls which the bulk of the episode is about the Grimsby meteorite fall 
but there is a five minute segment concerning the ALH84001 meteorite. David 
McKay, astrobiologist from NASA Johnson Space Center and his team of scientist 
go into great detail in explain how magnetites found in the ALH84001 meteorite 
could possibly be fossils from bacteria from Mars. 

In the video, McKay explains this process by stating that his scientific team  
found within the ALH84001 meteorite golden spherical shaped disks called 
carbonates, which could indicate that these carbonates came from an environment 
where there was water or is water.  

Within the carbonates the scientists found magnetite chains that resemble 
magnetite chains found in magnetotactic bacteria on Earth. McKay in the 
documentary believes that’s these magnetite chains could be traces of bacteria 
fossils from Mars. On Earth when a magnetotactic bacteria decay, what is left 
is a magnetite chain, which could suggest that these chains found in the 
carbonates from ALH84001 meteorite could be an indication that they came from 
bacteria that formed in or around water.  

With the proof that there was water on Mars and that there might still be water 
on Mars one could conclude that at one time, there might have been life on that 
red, desolate, planet we call Mars which has been around since the birth of the 
solar system, 4.6 billion years ago. That is a lot of time for the life and 
death of any species or bacteria to form, live, die, and decay.

I wonder how long it would take the Earth to rot away to its true natural state 
if the atmosphere and magnetic field was gone? One million years and all signs 
of civilization could be erased and only mother Earths raw natural state to 
show for… Something to think about when considering if life does or did existed 
elsewhere. Earth 4.6 billion years…. Universe about 14 billion years and 
counting.

Hi all - 

Some of you may remember several years back my several part tale of my dramatic 
involvement (and lack therof) in the breaking of the ALH84001 fossils story. 

For what its worth, I think that those strcutures are fossils, based on my 
conversation at that time with Dr. MacKay's SEM specialist. He found that the 
PHAs were bound by the structures' walls, and the later finds of magnetite 
grains in the structure appear to me as a below surface sensory mechanism. 

I tend to go with Marc on this news, and with his analysis of how the error 
occured.

Hello Listers,

There is a great documentary by National Geographic / Naked Science called 
Alien Falls which the bulk of the episode is about the Grimsby meteorite 
fall but there is a five minute segment concerning the ALH84001 meteorite. 
David McKay, astrobiologist from NASA Johnson Space Center and his team of 
scientist go into great detail in explain how magnetites found in the 
ALH84001 meteorite could possibly be fossils from bacteria from Mars.


In the video, McKay explains this process by stating that his scientific 
team  found within the ALH84001 meteorite golden spherical shaped disks 
called carbonates, which could indicate that these carbonates came from an 
environment where there was water or is water.


Within the carbonates the scientists found magnetite chains that resemble 
magnetite chains found in magnetotactic bacteria on Earth. McKay in the 
documentary believes that’s these magnetite chains could be traces of 
bacteria fossils from Mars. On Earth when a magnetotactic bacteria decay, 
what is left is a magnetite chain, which could suggest that these chains 
found in the carbonates from ALH84001 meteorite could be an indication 
that they came from bacteria that formed in or around water.


With the proof that there was water on Mars and that there might still be 
water on Mars one could conclude that at one time, there might have been 
life on that red, desolate, planet we call Mars which has been around 
since the birth of the solar system, 4.6 billion years ago. That is a lot 
of time for the life and death of any species or bacteria to form, live, 
die, and decay.


I wonder how long it would take the Earth to rot away to its true natural 
state if the atmosphere and magnetic field was gone? One million years and 
all signs of civilization could be erased and only mother Earths raw 
natural state to show for… Something to think about when considering if 
life does or did existed elsewhere. Earth 4.6 billion years…. Universe 
about 14 billion years and counting.

Re: [meteorite-list] 3 more finds from dry lake

[Meteorites USA]

Perhaps the most interesting dry lake bed find I've seen yet. A 
racetrack meteorite.


Now that is COOL!

Congrats Paul!

Eric

[Robert Verish]

Hello Paul,

Haven't heard from you in quite a while, but it looks like you're starting up 
where you had left-off.

I find your style of video-making very interesting.  I really like them!

Congratulations on your "ice-rafted" finds,
Bob V.

P.S. - for those of you not familiar with Paul's earlier accomplishments, here 
is a link to an old webpage of mine (probably needs revising) of some of his 
earlier finds:
