Re: [meteorite-list] Lunar Meteorite Quiz - How big an object with velocity to get a new Lunar Meteorite to Earth?

[drtanuki]

List,
  For those that are interested in transit times and lunar impacts that result 
in Lunar Meteorites here on Earth, Dr. Randy Korotev has written a very good 
summary on this topic and his website answers the basic questions posed-
http://meteorites.wustl.edu/lunar/

Some of the questions answered are-
How Did Lunar Meteorites Get Here?
Do All Lunar Meteorites Come from One Big Impact on the Moon?
Does It Take a Big Impact to Launch
a Lunar Meteoroid?
and many more.  Take a read of his website written for the Washington 
University in St. Louis. Thank you Dr. Korotev!

Dirk Ross...Tokyo 

P.S. The reason I posed the question in the first place was because of the 
recent announcement about a large lunar impact recorded on the Moon-
http://lunarmeteoritehunters.blogspot.jp/2014/02/biggest-observed-meteorite-impact-hits.html

It would be so cool if something was launched from this impact and it makes it 
here to the Earth in the coming years!

I have to go on a trip in a few minutes, but an additional consideration 
to  mass, ejection V & angle, etc. is the consideration of orbital 
mechanics of an ejected mass as to whether it is reaches a stable orbit, 
one that ultimately decays into earth or one that may escape the 
gravitational effects of the Earth-moon system.

Look up Lagrangian points,

Ted

[meteorite-list] Lunar Meteorite Quiz - How big an object with velocity to get a new Lunar Meteorite to Earth?

[drtanuki]

Dear List,
  A big thank you in advance! This should cover most of the experts in the 
field...
Since there are many on this list with advanced degrees and also novices I pose 
this question.- How large of diameter, an impact object, with what velocity 
would it take to get a new Lunar Meteorite to Earth and what is the fastest or 
average transit time? Thanks to those that are entertained!  Invited are some 
of the world"s top experts for an answer or re-framing of the question. 
Indulge. Dirk Ross...Tokyo

[meteorite-list] 'Solar System' on Leaked List of US Postage Stamp Subjects for 2014

[Ron Baalke]

http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-022414a-usps-solar-system-stamps.html

'Solar System' on leaked list of US postage stamp subjects for 2014
collectspace.com
February 24, 2014

The United States Postal Service is planning to 
put its stamp on the solar system - or rather the solar system on its 
stamps.

A confidential document shared with The Washington Post includes the "Solar 
System" on a list of U.S. stamp topics that have not yet been announced 
publicly but are planned for release later this year. The "approved subjects" 
include the "Solar System" among the postage stamps "in design development" 
as of Jan. 7, 2014.

Although some work on the list's stamps has started, the United States 
Postal Service's (USPS) executive director for stamp services, Susan McGowan, 
told the newspaper that the topics are "subject to change" at any time.

The inclusion of the "Solar System" on the list though, is consistent 
with the minutes from a 2013 meeting leaked to the weekly magazine Linn's 
Stamp News last May. In that report, the space stamps were targeted for 
this October.

[Image]
The Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee's Jan. 7, 2014 listing of approved 
subjects includes the "Solar System." (WashPost)

Both the meeting's minutes and subject list originated with the Citizens' 
Stamps Advisory Committee, a panel tasked with reviewing stamp ideas and 
making recommendations to the U.S. Postmaster.

In the past, the Postal Service announced most of its next year's stamp 
schedule at once. In recent years, the USPS has chosen to reveal new issues 
as the year progresses.

To date, the USPS has released information about stamps it plans to issue 
this year through July.

No other details about the planetary-themed postage have been made public. 
The leaked reports do not stipulate how many different stamp designs would 
comprise the set.

If they are released this year, the "Solar System" stamps will be the 
first U.S. space or astronomy-topical stamps in three years.

On May 4, 2011, the USPS issued a pair of stamps (or "se-tenant") to 
commemorate 
both the 50th anniversary of Mercury astronaut Alan Shepard launching 
to become the first American in space and NASA's MESSENGER probe becoming 
the first spacecraft to orbit the planet Mercury.

The Alan Shepard stamp marked the first time the USPS honored a NASA astronaut. 
The MESSENGER issue was the third stamp to depict the planet Mercury, 
including the USPS's first set inspired by the solar system.

[Image]
The U.S. Postal Service in 1991 issued nine "Space Exploration" stamps, 
one for each planet and probe. (USPS/collectSPACE)

Released on Oct. 1, 1991, the USPS "Space Exploration" pane included ten 
different stamps - one for each planet and a U.S. robotic space mission 
that visited it (the tenth stamp was for Earth's moon). The ninth stamp, 
for Pluto, was labeled "Not Yet Explored."

One of those Pluto stamps was launched toward the small icy world on NASA's 
New Horizons mission in 2006. Six years later, the probe's flight team 
and more than 12,000 supporters petitioned the USPS to issue a stamp for 
the spacecraft in 2015, to coincide with its flyby of Pluto.

In February 2013, the New Horizons team received notice that their idea 
would be put up for review by the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee (CSAC). 
A year later and the approved subjects list published by The Washington 
Post, which included stamp topics for 2014 through 2016, didn't include 
mention of New Horizons or Pluto.

The only space-themed subject on the Post's acquired list is the "Solar 
System." Whether that means that the CSAC chose to combine the New Horizons' 
request with the solar system issue or if it is still under review (or 
has now been rejected) is still to be seen.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteor Video in England 15/16FEB2014 Substitution/Hoax??? Such videos becoming more a problem.

[drtanuki]

Rob,  Thank you Rob for your keen observation. Another substitution video out 
there.  At least it was not the Argentina concert event that was turned on its 
side and passed by a major TV news agency.
  Real video-
http://www.nbcnews.com/video/nightly-news/51638915#51638915


Fake used by major news TV-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o4sKyD4bpk


We will see more of this so please help out by identifying videos if you happen 
to see one.

Anyone have a means to digitally ID each video?  Jodie Reynolds?

Thank you.  Dirk Ross...Tokyo

P.S. Yes I was fooled for about a week by the four San Luis Potosi meteor 
videos, CGI created videos, that once I solved the 3rd location of the video it 
was realized...Hoax!

Hi Dirk,

Definitely Chelyabinsk. I think all that someone did was mirror image the video
so that
the driver's side of the cars would "appear" to be on the right.  --Rob

Hello List,
During my absence there was a video that was purported to be taken in the UK on
15/16FEB2014. 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQipGW5O2Tk  

 The video appears to me to have been of Chelyabinsk as geometry and behavior of
the fireball are the same and the car license plates appear to be Russian..  I
have never seen this clip before so can anyone verify.  Anyways this is likely a
video of Chelyabinsk taken in a taxi lot somewhere in Russia. I am dubious of
the supposed UK video. Nevertheless, this is a good video of a real event.

Hoax/substitution/faked videos are becoming more and more common.  Please help
me and others by noting faked videos and if you spot something that appears so,
please let me know offlist.  Thank you.

It would be fantastic if someone would help me make a catalog of real videos.
Thanks!

Dirk Ross...Tokyo
