[meteorite-list] Sky and Telescope article on the 21st September UK fireball
Hi all, There is a nice article giving a summary of the amazing fireball seen over the UK on 21st September 2012. I even get a small mention :-) Link is below: (http://www.skyandtelescope.com/news/Amazing-Meteor-Boomerangs-Around-Earth-172332451.html) Cheers Martin -- Martin Goff www.msg-meteorites.co.uk IMCA #3387 __ 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

Hi all, A heads up on a possible out burst activity. At Oct 8, 2012 at 16/17 UT I seem to have recorded a large rise in meteors. I checked RMOB live and Glen Harris, Mike Otte and Mikhail Svoiski saw the same magnitude of increase in their counts. A look at the spectrogram shows these are real, descrete echoes and not Es or other type of none meteor interference nor solar noise. I should check the Japanese sites to see if they are seeing it as well.

[meteorite-list] Curiosity Update: First Scoopful A Success
http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/news/whatsnew/index.cfm?FuseAction=ShowNewsNewsID=1370 First Scoopful A Success Jet Propulsion Laboratory October 8, 2012 On the mission's 61st Martian day, or sol (Oct. 7, 2012), NASA's Mars rover Curiosity used its soil scoop for the first time, collecting a scoopful of sand and powdery material at the Rocknest site. Imaging verified collection of the sample. The collected material will be used for cleaning interior surfaces of the rover's sample-handling mechanism. It will be held and vibrated inside each chamber of the mechanism before the material is discarded. Curiosity's Collection and Handling for In-Situ Martian Rock Analysis (CHIMRA) device, on the robotic arm, includes the scoop and the mechanism for sieving and portioning samples of soil and powdered rock. A Sol 61 raw image from Curiosity's left navigation camera, at http://1.usa.gov/OMDbxy, shows where the soil collected by the scoop was removed from the ground. The scoop leaves a hole 1.8 inches (4.5 centimeters) wide. The rover's ability to put scooped and sieved samples of soil into on board laboratory instruments is an important part of the mission. Those instruments -- Chemistry and Mineralogy (CheMin) and Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) -- will play crucial roles in evaluating whether the study area has ever had a favorable environment for microbial life. Still to be used for the first time is the rover's capability to take powdered samples from rocks, using a percussive drill, for delivery to those same instruments. Sol 61, in Mars local mean solar time at Gale Crater, ended at 11:44 p.m. Oct. 7, PDT (2:44 a.m. Oct. 8, EDT). __ 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

[meteorite-list] Draconid Meteor Outburst Underway
Space Weather News for Oct. 8, 2012 http://spaceweather.com METEOR OUTBURST: Radars in Canada are reporting a major outburst of Draconid meteors commencing at 16 UT on Oct. 8th. Radar rates are at 1000 meteors per hour, says Bill Cooke of NASA' Meteoroid Environment Office. This is greater than last year's outburst, and 5x the 2005 level. Cooke encourages northern sky watchers, especially in Europe where night is falling, to be alert for Draconid activity. Because radars are sensitive to very small meteoroids, there is no guarantee that this radar outburst will translate into meteors visible to the human eye. On the other hand, a brilliant display could be in progress. The only way to know is to go outside and look.

[meteorite-list] Curiosity Update: Checking a Bright Object on the Ground
http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/news/whatsnew/index.cfm?FuseAction=ShowNewsNewsID=1371 Checking a Bright Object on the Ground Jet Propulsion Laboratory October 8, 2012 Curiosity's first scooping activity appeared to go well on Oct. 7. Subsequently, the rover team decided to refrain from using the rover's robotic arm on Oct. 8 due to the detection of a bright object on the ground that might be a piece from the rover. Instead of arm activities during the 62nd Martian day, or sol, of the mission, Curiosity is acquiring additional imaging of the object to aid the team in identifying the object and assessing possible impact, if any, to sampling activities. Sol 62, in Mars local mean solar time at Gale Crater, will end at 12:23 a.m. Oct. 9, PDT (3:23 a.m., EDT) A related image is at: http://1.usa.gov/RrqFjs A related video is at: http://1.usa.gov/RaFPcm . __ 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
