[meteorite-list] Sutter's Mill Regolith breccia
The "Science" abstract refers Sutter's Mill meteorite as being a regolith breccia. I've only read the abstract and several other abstracts, but I don't remember any mention of it containing solar implanted gases. I was under the impression that to be a regolith breccia, there had to be a noble gas content. Am I missing something or am I completely wrong. (It hasn't been the first time) Thanks, Frank __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

[meteorite-list] Kudos to Petrus Jenniskens
Howdy all I want to point out the recent Science article on the Sutter's Mill meteorite, which I'm sure many of y'all are already aware of. I'd like to direct your attention to the author list in particular. There are several names on there that are not Ph.D.-bearing meteorite scientists, but who are members of the meteorite community who've contributed to the recovery and investigation of this important fall. Many kudos to Petrus Jenniskens for including them in there - the author list is a wonderful cross-section of our community and it highlights the distinct, but highly complementary, roles that we all play. One of the things I like the most about meteorite research is that it is immediately accessible to the public, and that many people of a wide range of backgrounds and skills participate in it. We get to help ensure that kids in school today learn more about their world, their Solar System, and in nature in general than we did when we were in school. That's progress of the most important kind. http://www.sciencemag.org/content/338/6114/1583.abstract Cheers, Marc Fries __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] Recently Named Mercury Craters Honor Blues Singer and Animation Pioneer
http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/news_room/details.php?id=234
MESSENGER Mission News
December 21, 2012
Recently Named Mercury Craters Honor Blues Singer and Animation Pioneer
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) recently approved a proposal
from the MESSENGER Science Team to assign names to nine impact craters
on Mercury. The IAU has been the arbiter of planetary and satellite
nomenclature since its inception in 1919. In keeping with the
established naming theme for craters on Mercury, all of the newly
designated features are named after famous deceased artists, musicians,
or authors or other contributors to the humanities. The newly named
craters are:
* Catullus, for Gaius Valerius Catullus (ca. 84 BC-ca. 54 BC), a
Latin poet of the Republican period. His surviving works are still
read widely and continue to influence poetry and other forms of art.
* Disney, for Walter Elias "Walt" Disney (1901-1966), an American
film maker, actor, and animator who, along with his brother Roy O.
Disney, co-founded Walt Disney Productions, which later became one
of the best-known motion picture producers in the world.
* Hopper, for Edward Hopper (1882-1967), a prominent American
realist painter and printmaker. Although he was most popularly
known for his oil paintings, he was equally proficient as a
watercolorist and printmaker in etching.
* Joplin, for Scott Joplin (1868-1917), an African-American
composer and pianist who wrote 44 original ragtime pieces, one
ragtime ballet, and two operas. One of his first pieces, the
"Maple Leaf Rag," became ragtime's first and most influential hit
and has been recognized as the archetypal rag.
* Kobro, for Katarzyna Kobro (1898-1951), a prominent Polish
sculptor who co-founded the AR ("Revolutionary Artists" or
"avant-garde Actual"). She is credited with revolutionizing
thinking about sculpture. Her work explored the relations between
the art object, the audience, and the surrounding space.
* Komeda, for Krzysztof Komeda (1931-1969), a Polish film music
composer and jazz pianist best known for his work in film scores.
He wrote the scores for Roman Polanski's films "Rosemary's Baby,"
"The Fearless Vampire Killers," "Knife in the Water," and
"Cul-de-sac." His album "Astigmatic" (1965) is widely regarded as
one of the most important European jazz albums.
* Kyosai, for Kawanabe Kyosai (1831-1889), a Japanese artist who
attained a reputation as a caricaturist. In addition to his
caricatures, Kyosai painted a large number of pictures and
sketches, often choosing subjects from the folklore of his country.
* Popova, for Lyubov Popova (1889-1924), a Russian painter,
graphic artist, theatrical designer, applied artist, and
illustrator. She painted in a Cubo-Futurist style and designed
fabrics and agitprop books and posters.
* Waters, for McKinley "Muddy Waters" Morganfield (1915-1983), an
African-American blues musician, generally considered the father
of modern "Chicago blues." He was a major inspiration for the
British blues explosion in the 1960s and is ranked No. 17 in
/Rolling Stone/ magazine's list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All
Time.
These nine newly named craters join 86 other craters named since the
MESSENGER spacecraft's first Mercury flyby in January 2008. "Kawanabe
Kyosai, 19th century Japanese artist and now namesake of Kyosai crater
on Mercury, changed the first character of his name from one meaning
'crazy' in Japanese to one meaning 'enlightenment' upon being released
from prison," notes William Vaughan, a Ph.D. student at Brown University
who, as a member of MESSENGER Geology Discipline Group, was involved in
selecting the names. "I hope that careful study of Kyosai crater will
similarly reward us with enlightenment about Mercury's enigmatic geology."
Images of several of the craters can be found in the MESSENGER Science
Images Gallery including Cattalus
,
Disney
,
and Waters
.
All of the newly named craters can be explored interactively on a global
map of Mercury, with instructions available online at
http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/gallery/sciencePhotos/image.php?image_id=1053.
"The MESSENGER team appreciates the timely approval by IAU of the names
for this new list of impact craters," adds MESSENGER Principal
Investigator Sean Solomon of Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth
Observatory. "Because these features are areas of active geological
study by our team, the formal names will make it easier to communicate
our findings to colleagues in the planetary sciences. More importantly,
the naming of these features ma

[meteorite-list] NASA'S Space Launch System Core Stage Passes Major Milestone, Ready to Start Construction
Dec. 21, 2012 Joshua Buck Headquarters, Washington 202-358-1100 jb...@nasa.gov Kim Henry 256-544-0034 Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, Ala. kimberly.h.he...@nasa.gov RELEASE: 12-440 NASA'S SPACE LAUNCH SYSTEM CORE STAGE PASSES MAJOR MILESTONE, READY TO START CONSTRUCTION HUNTSVILLE, Ala. -- The team designing America's new flagship rocket has completed successfully a major technical review of the vehicle's core stage. NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) will take the agency's Orion spacecraft and other payloads beyond low-Earth orbit, providing a new capability for human exploration. The core stage preliminary design review (PDR) was held Thursday at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., and included representatives from the agency and The Boeing Co. Boeing's Exploration Launch Systems in Huntsville is the prime contractor for the core stage and its avionics. Marshall manages the SLS Program. "Passing a preliminary design review within 12 months of bringing Boeing on contract shows we are on track toward meeting a 2017 launch date," said Tony Lavoie, manager of the SLS Stages Element at Marshall. "We can now allow those time-critical areas of design to move forward with initial fabrication and proceed toward the final design phase -- culminating in a critical design review in 2014 -- with confidence." The first flight test of the SLS, which will feature a configuration for a 70-metric ton lift capacity and carry an uncrewed Orion spacecraft beyond the moon, is scheduled for 2017. As the SLS evolves, a two-stage launch vehicle using the core stage will provide a lift capability of 130-metric tons to enable missions beyond low-Earth orbit and to support deep space exploration. The purpose of the PDR was to ensure the design met system requirements within acceptable risk and fell within schedule and budget constraints. An important part of the PDR was to prove the core stage could integrate safely with other elements of the rocket's main engines and solid rocket boosters, the crew capsule and the launch facilities at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Core stage designers provided an in-depth assessment to a board of engineers comprised of propulsion and design experts from across the agency and the aerospace industry. "Each individual element of this program has to be at the same level of maturity before we can move the program as a whole to the next step," SLS Program Manager Todd May said. "The core stage is the rocket's central propulsion element and will be an optimized blend of new and existing hardware design. We're building it with longer tanks, longer feed lines and advanced manufacturing processes. We are running ahead of schedule and will leverage that schedule margin to ensure a safe and affordable rocket for our first flight in 2017." The core stage will be built at NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans using state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment. The plant continues modifying its facilities and ordering materials for construction of the rocket. Michoud has built components for NASA's spacecraft for decades, most recently, the space shuttle's external tanks.

[meteorite-list] 'All Clear' Given on Potential 2040 Impact of Asteroid 2011 AG5
http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news176.html "All Clear" Given on Potential 2040 Impact of Asteroid 2011 AG5 NASA/JPL Near-Earth Object Program Office December 21, 2012 NASA scientists have announced that new observations of 2011 AG5 show that this asteroid, once thought to have a worrisome potential to threaten Earth, no longer poses a significant risk of impact. The orbital uncertainties of the 140m diameter near-Earth asteroid had previously allowed a 0.2% chance of collision in Feb. 2040, leading to a call for more observations to better constrain the asteroid's future course. Answering the call, University of Hawaii astronomers Dave Tholen, Richard Wainscoat and Marco Micheli used the Gemini 8.2-meter telescope at Mauna Kea, Hawaii to successfully recover and observe the small and very faint asteroid on October 20, 21 and 27, 2012. In addition to improving our knowledge of the orbit, the Gemini observations also suggest the asteroid varies in brightness as it rotates and therefore may be elongated. Gemini is managed by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA). In addition to the Gemini measurements, Tholen, Micheli and Garrett Elliott obtained less conclusive observations on October 9 & 10 with the University of Hawaii 2.2-meter telescope, also situated on the summit of Mauna Kea. After extensive astrometric analysis by the team in Hawaii, all observations were then sent to the International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts. An analysis of the new data conducted by NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, shows that the risk of collision in 2040 has been eliminated. The updated trajectory of 2011 AG5 is not significantly different, but the new observations have reduced the orbit uncertainties by more than a factor of 60, meaning that the Earth's position in February 2040 no longer falls within the range of possible future paths for the asteroid. With the updated orbit, the asteroid will pass no closer than 890,000 km (over twice the distance to the moon) in Feb. 2040, the epoch of the prior potential collision. [Graph of 2011 AG5's orbit prior to new position data] [Graph of 2011 AG5's orbit after new position] The position data obtained for near-Earth asteroid 2011 AG5 in October 2012 was used to update its orbit and dramatically reduce its future orbital uncertainties in February 2040. In the first plot, the asteroid's possible positions in space (region of uncertainty) prior to the orbit improvement is an extremely lengthy arc that includes the position of the Earth. Hence an Earth collision could not be ruled out. However, the observational data in October 2012 allowed a sixty-fold improvement in the 2040 region of uncertainty and the second plot shows that this, now much smaller, arc no long includes the Earth. Hence an Earth impact by 2011 AG5 in February 2040 is no longer possible. Earlier in 2012, NASA's NEO Program Office conducted a contingency deflection analysis for the 2040 potential impact of 2011 AG5. Among the findings was that any new observations either in 2012, or in 2013 when the object will be much easier to observe, had a 95% likelihood of eliminating the hazard posed by 2011 AG5. If the potential for impact had been confirmed, the impact odds could have risen as high as 1 in 10, but the study released in May 2012 found that scenario to be unlikely. While the interest in 2011 AG5 has been reduced by the new results, the experience gained by studying this potential real-world deflection problem has demonstrated that NASA is well situated to predict the trajectories of Earth threatening asteroids. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

All of the schemes where power sellers stuff shows first, sellers can't leave anything but positive feedback even when robbed, PayPal claws your money out at first request by any buyer! Not a single change has been for the better. I don't need them anymore, I have more than enough serious customers to buy my things without paying commission even on shipping costs!
