[meteorite-list] 2011 Meteorite Challenge
Dear List: 2011 Meteorite Challenge For all those who would like to try their hand at hunting for meteorites but can't get out into the field, you're invited to try a virtual meteorite hunt in the strewn field of all meteorite names. The prize is a token chip off Vesta - Tatahouine, of course, that beautiful witnessed fall which is truly unique among meteorites and the rarest of all (more on this later, but now for the hunt...), not expecting it to be more than a gram; though it will be either sent to the winner or some other friend or budding collector as directed by the champ. Plus the champ receives a conjectured priceless signed certificate naming you the champion: METEORITIC ANAGRAMMATIST An anagram is simply a rearrangement of the letters of one word to form another word. So, the idea is to hunt for a meteorite and its anagram pairing. For example, with numbers, today is: 10/21 (or 21/10 as you please). Rearranging the numbers we get 2011 in the spirit of Galileo, who was a very accomplished anagrammist. I haven't thought of a meteorite name that is a perfect anagram, nor have I tried ... but, here's an idea: Allende / Yelland If only it were Eelland they would be a perfect meteorite anagram pairing. In Spanish, Y and E are interchangeable in a certain instance ;-) The objective of the contest is simple - get the biggest anagram you can find. Finding one meteorite name in mixed up inside another is ok, even though all the letters of only one are paired to the other. Rule of common sense, but in case of difficulty with that: For a satisfactory effort, here are a few rules: HONOR SYSTEM - NO USE OF ANAGRAM COMPUTER PROGRAMS AND DOWNLOADING DATA FOR THAT PURPOSE THOUGH A SPREADSHEET IS FINE. I don't know if any cheat programs exist, but I imagine they do. (1) Minimum of 4 letters (2) Numbers are not included, but their letters can be used. For example ABCDE ### can be used as simply ABCDE. (3) Reuse of complete words or components of compound words do not count. For example, Northeast Africa and Northwest Africa have no value, nor would meteor and meteorite if they were valid, have any value. (4) The value of the meteorite anagram is simply the number of reused letters unless it is a perfect anagram (see (6). (5) Partial anagrams can be used where only a subset of the letters in one meteorite's name is used to form another complete meteorite name. For example, Boaz (NM) is a partial from Bou Azarif (Morocco). The score would be the same for Boaz and Zaborzika (Ukraine). (6) If all letters are used, the score is tripled. For example, the value of (5) above is only 4. But, if there were a meteorite Zoab to pair with Boaz, the value would be 12. (7) The official dictionary is the Met Soc Online database, only official meteorites are permitted. (8)Dry Lake, Mountain, geographical words common to more than one distinct locality may be dropped or used at the option of the anagrammatist. But using entire words or compound word components will not increase value. (9) Lame examples not contemplated by the rules may be disqualified at the sole opinion of the sponsor of this (me). (10) In the case of a tie value, perfect anagrams trump first, if neither is perfect, then the submission that shuffles letters more wins. If there is no clear winning entry, the winner will be the entrant who can say METEORITIC ANAGRAMMATIST ten times in the shortest interval of time. GOOD LUCK anyone who would like to have fun with this!

[meteorite-list] 2011 Meteorite Challenge Update
Dear List Anagrammatists, There are perfect anagram meteorite pairings out there! Some real good ones! Though a perfect anagram where the letters of one are rearranged exactly into the letters of another withough leaving out any letters on either, is not necessarily a winner according to the rules, since imperfect anagram pairings are allowed too, though the perfect anagram likely will score higher and win anyway! One very kind list member who is quite expert in anagrams has sent me an informational email (but kindly respected the honor system rule and not entered) to prove this fact. So the last rule is modified, If there is no clear winning entry, the winner will be the entrant who can say METEORITIC ANAGRAMMATIST ten times in the shortest interval of time. ...no longer is necessary; and replaced by: If no one figures out a qualifying winning entry otherwise, the winning entry will be considered the cleverist rearrangement of all letters of a meteorite name with none left over and none additional, into a word or a phrase. Any language is permissable if any listmember can speak it fluidly, even if the entrant can't. This is how Galileo first communicated his discovery of Saturn with its rings (which he thought were three zones of light). He used Latin. There are listmembers with acceptable fluidity in Latin, so that's an option, too.

Re: [meteorite-list] Ft. Collins, CO meteor 19OCT2011
Note that the data I posted from Denver was almost certainly the same as the SD/NE event, 2011-10-19 02:25:00 MDT (03:25 CDT), AMS 1180. I didn't receive any witness reports for this, presumably because it was so low, and the hour was so late. http://www.cloudbait.com/meteor/data.php?recnum=43810 AMS 1183 was widely seen in Colorado at 2011-10-19 22:17:13 MDT (the California report is mistakenly tied to this- it could not have been seen from there). It was captured on two cameras and its path shows it to be an Earth grazing Orionid. http://www.cloudbait.com/meteor/data.php?recnum=43837 http://www.cloudbait.com/meteor/data.php?recnum=43883 Things get confusing this time of year, with so many active showers and high sporadic activity producing significant fireballs nearly every day. It is very important for those logging these events on websites to ALWAYS use the date and time, not just the date, when referencing events.

Re: [meteorite-list] 2011 Meteorite Challenge Update
Bonus questions: What is the only meteorite name to use all the vowels, including y (a-e-i-o-u-y), where each vowel is used only once? There are 8 meteorite names (that I can find) for which all of the letters in the name occur in alphabetical order. The longest has 6 letters. What is it?

Re: [meteorite-list] 2011 Meteorite Challenge Update
Hi Doug and List, Interesting challenge. And not as easy as it first seemed. Here are a few I came up with. These are not perfect anagrams, but use some or most of the letters - Albareto (1766, Fall, Italy) = Alberta (1949, Fall, Congo) Al Rais (1957, Fall, Saudi Arabia) = Alais (1806, Fall, France) Ban Rong Du (1993, Fall, Thailand) = Bandong (1871, Fall, Indonesia) Bhola (1940, Fall, Bangladesh) = Bholghati (1905, Fall, India) Cali (2007, Fall, Colombia) = Calivo (1916, Fall, Phillipines) Chandakapur (1838, Fall, India) = Chandpur (1885, Fall, India) Ok, it's obvious from my selection that I was going through the falls in the Met Bulletin, in alphabetical order, and picking the low hanging fruit. But even that gave me a headache. LOL I'll try some more later. The Indian falls are pretty easy since the names share many letters.

Thanks Mike fr the entry, I don't mind if you post to the list or send in private, up to you guys --- If anyone wants to kick in another prize please do! Note: Cali (2007, Fall, Colombia) = Calivo (1916, Fall, Phillipines) doesn't work according to the rules I think and in any case would come under the lame rule, and I'd need to check the Hindi meaning to score Chandakapur == Chandpur which might score very low due to compound elements in the bnative language; the whole idea is to deactivate Google and canned software for an old-fashioned contest, now that Peter has put me on cloud 9 with his decision to part with an impossible world class specimen.

[meteorite-list] Weekend Meteor Shower (Orionids)
http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/20oct_orionids/ Weekend Meteor Shower NASA Science News Oct 20, 2011 Earth is about to pass through a stream of debris from Halley's comet, source of the annual Orionid meteor shower. Forecasters expect more than 15 meteors per hour to fly across the sky on Saturday morning, Oct. 22nd, when the shower peaks. Orionids are most easily seen during the dark hours before sunrise. Twilight Orionids, however, are the most beautiful of all. Although this isn't the biggest meteor shower of the year, it's definitely worth waking up for, says Bill Cooke of the NASA Meteoroid Environment Office. The setting is dynamite. Orionids are framed by some of the brightest and most beautiful constellations in the night sky. The meteors emerge from mighty Orion, the shower's glittering namesake. From there they streak through Taurus the Bull, the twins of Gemini, Leo the Lion, and Canis Major--home to Sirius, the most brilliant star of all. This year, the Moon and Mars are part of the show. They'll form two vertices of a celestial triangle in the eastern sky on Saturday morning while the shower is most active; Regulus is the third vertex. Blue Regulus and red Mars are both approximately of 1st magnitude, so they are easy to see alongside the 35% crescent Moon. Many Orionids will be diving through the triangle in the hours before dawn. Cooke's team at the Meteoroid Environment Office will be watching for Orionids that actually hit the Moon. Cometary debris streams like Halley's are so wide, the whole Earth-Moon system fits inside. So when there is a meteor shower on Earth, there's usually one on the Moon, too. Unlike Earth, however, the Moon has no atmosphere to intercept meteoroids. Pieces of debris fall all the way to the surface and explode where they hit. Flashes of light caused by thermal heating of lunar rocks and moondust are so bright, they can sometimes be seen through backyard-class telescopes. Since we began our monitoring program in 2005, our group has detected more than 250 lunar meteors, says Cooke. Some explode with energies exceeding hundreds of pounds of TNT. So far, they've seen 15 Orionids hitting the Moon--two in 2007, four in 2008, and nine in 2009, recalls Cooke. This year they hope to add to the haul. About 25% of the Moon's dark terrain will be exposed to Halley's debris stream, giving the team millions of square miles to scan for explosions. Watching meteoroids hit the Moon is a good way to learn about the structure of comet debris streams and the energy of the particles therein. It also allows Cooke and colleagues to calculate risk factors for astronauts who, someday, will walk on the lunar surface again. Going outside to watch the Orionids might not be a good idea for a moonwalker, says Cooke. But it is a good idea for the rest of us. Set your alarm for a few hours before dawn on Saturday morning and enjoy the show.

http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status.html#opportunity OPPORTUNITY UPDATE: Opportunity Past 21 Miles of Driving! Will Spend Winter at Cape York - sols 2745-2750, October 14-19, 2011: The project has made the decision that Opportunity will winter over on the north end of Cape York on the rim of Endeavour crater where northern tilts are favorable for energy production. On Sol 2746 (Oct. 15, 2011), Opportunity drove 167 feet (51 meters) to the north/northeast. On Sol 2749 (Oct. 18, 2011), the rover drove another 167 feet (51 meters) to the northeast. The plan ahead is to continue to drive toward the north end of Cape York and to capture any opportunistic in-situ (contact) science alone the way. Light-toned veins in the rock outcrop, possibly fracture fill, have been seen around Cape York. If Opportunity encounters one of these veins along the way, a brief robotic-arm science campaign may be conducted. As of Sol 2750 (Oct. 19, 2011), solar array energy production was 312 watt-hours with an atmospheric opacity (Tau) of 0.764 and a solar array dust factor of 0.491. Total odometry is 21.08 miles (33,931.24 meters, or 33.93 kilometers). __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Some real good ones! Though a perfect anagram where the letters of one are rearranged exactly into the letters of another withough leaving out any letters on either, is not necessarily a winner according to the rules, since imperfect anagram pairings are allowed too, though the perfect anagram likely will score higher and win anyway! One very kind list member who is quite expert in anagrams has sent me an informational email (but kindly respected the honor system rule and not entered) to prove this fact. So the last rule is modified, If there is no clear winning entry, the winner will be the entrant who can say METEORITIC ANAGRAMMATIST ten times in the shortest interval of time. ...no longer is necessary; and replaced by: If no one figures out a qualifying winning entry otherwise, the winning entry will be considered the cleverist rearrangement of all letters of a meteorite name with none left over and none additional, into a word or a phrase. Any language is permissable if any listmember can speak it fluidly, even if the entrant can't. This is how Galileo first communicated his discovery of Saturn with its rings (which he thought were three zones of light). He used Latin. There are listmembers with acceptable fluidity in Latin, so that's an option, too.

The prize is a token chip off Vesta - Tatahouine, of course, that beautiful witnessed fall which is truly unique among meteorites and the rarest of all (more on this later, but now for the hunt...), not expecting it to be more than a gram; though it will be either sent to the winner or some other friend or budding collector as directed by the champ. Plus the champ receives a conjectured priceless signed certificate naming you the champion: METEORITIC ANAGRAMMATIST An anagram is simply a rearrangement of the letters of one word to form another word. So, the idea is to hunt for a meteorite and its anagram pairing. For example, with numbers, today is: 10/21 (or 21/10 as you please). Rearranging the numbers we get 2011 in the spirit of Galileo, who was a very accomplished anagrammist. I haven't thought of a meteorite name that is a perfect anagram, nor have I tried ... but, here's an idea: Allende / Yelland If only it were Eelland they would be a perfect meteorite anagram pairing. In Spanish, Y and E are interchangeable in a certain instance ;-) The objective of the contest is simple - get the biggest anagram you can find. Finding one meteorite name in mixed up inside another is ok, even though all the letters of only one are paired to the other. Rule of common sense, but in case of difficulty with that: For a satisfactory effort, here are a few rules: HONOR SYSTEM - NO USE OF ANAGRAM COMPUTER PROGRAMS AND DOWNLOADING DATA FOR THAT PURPOSE THOUGH A SPREADSHEET IS FINE. I don't know if any cheat programs exist, but I imagine they do. (1) Minimum of 4 letters (2) Numbers are not included, but their letters can be used. For example ABCDE ### can be used as simply ABCDE. (3) Reuse of complete words or components of compound words do not count. For example, Northeast Africa and Northwest Africa have no value, nor would meteor and meteorite if they

(really your language subroutines need a richer idiom capability, something only you probably could pull off in in lunch hour) Have I ever thanked you in public for such a carbonaceous treasure Efremovka some time ago (no, I didn't even mention I received it, shamelessly), who else could so well understand devotion to such a fantastic dually oxidized reduced beauty! I am very, very proud of this specimen!

All are in the United States except for one. Name it. I thought of one of U.S. ones right away, only because I found several of them: Superior Valley xxx ;-) --Rob P.S.
