[meteorite-list] The Tabor 1753 fall
Hello Chris and Listers, As for the Tabor meteorite, there has been some written documention about the fall, however, its not as much as other falls like Siena or L'Aigle. But any case, there has been documentation on the Tabor fall from leading scholars at the turn of the century, referring to these stones as coming from the sky. But for those first few stones that had been documented, were seen as thunder stones and in some instances, institutions would do away with those stones in fear or ridicule. But luckly, Tabor meteorite and other important falls had been saved. Down below are some links with information about the Tabor fall. http://books.google.com/books?id=7SvtVoa1W-cC&pg=PA2&dq=meteorite+Tabor+1753&hl=en&ei=I8EGTb32Jo2osAPHj6ySBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&sqi=2&ved=0CCYQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=meteorite%20Tabor%201753&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=6iEDMBAJ&pg=PA429&dq=meteorite+Tabor+1753&hl=en&ei=I8EGTb32Jo2osAPHj6ySBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4&sqi=2&ved=0CDcQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=meteorite%20Tabor%201753&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=UmwwIAAJ&pg=PA540&dq=meteorite+Tabor+1753&hl=en&ei=I8EGTb32Jo2osAPHj6ySBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&sqi=2&ved=0CDsQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=meteorite%20Tabor%201753&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=JeIKYAAJ&pg=PA429&dq=meteorite+Tabor+1753&hl=en&ei=I8EGTb32Jo2osAPHj6ySBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=8&sqi=2&ved=0CEgQ6AEwBw#v=onepage&q=meteorite%20Tabor%201753&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=idkaYAAJ&pg=PA239&dq=meteorite+Tabor+1753&hl=en&ei=I8EGTb32Jo2osAPHj6ySBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=10&sqi=2&ved=0CFAQ6AEwCQ#v=onepage&q=meteorite%20Tabor%201753&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=XKQ5cAAJ&pg=PA59&dq=meteorite+Tabor+1753&hl=en&ei=c8QGTa7SLpDAsAProcyICA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CDgQ6AEwBDgK#v=onepage&q&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=HETSMAAJ&pg=PA151&dq=meteorite+Tabor+1753&hl=en&ei=c8QGTa7SLpDAsAProcyICA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=8&ved=0CEYQ6AEwBzgK#v=onepage&q=meteorite%20Tabor%201753&f=false Shawn Alan IMCA 1633 eBaystore http://shop.ebay.com/photophlow/m.html __ 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

Re: [meteorite-list] The Tabor 1753 fall
Chris and Listers, What type of information are you looking for about the Tabor fall? At the time that Tabor fell, in 1753, there wasnt much research done at the time and Chladni hadnt came in to the picture yet. I would say that it took up till Siena before meteoritic science started to take a strong hold and L'Aigle fall to seal the deal. I did notice that scholars did take note with some of these thunder stones and started to piece them together and one scholar, Howard, observed physical characteristics within the matrix of these stones and the Tabor fall. But for the most part with the Tabor fall, there is bits and pieces of information that one has to piece together. One can conclude that with this fall and countless other falls,helped pave the way with meteoritic science. Here is a great link about Chladin and the origins of modern meteorite research. With this paper write by Marvin there is section about early falls and how they came to be. If you have the time I would try to read up on it if you already hadnt done so all ready. http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1996M%26PS...31..545M Shawn Alan IMCA 1633 eBaystore http://shop.ebay.com/photophlow/m.html [meteorite-list] The Tabor 1753 fall Chris Spratt cspratt at islandnet.com Mon Dec 13 23:13:49 EST 2010 Previous message: [meteorite-list] NWA 2995 Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Hi guys: Thanks forvthe input.

Burke in Cosmic Debris refers to the Journal Book of the Royal Society when discussing Tabor. Marvin references Burke. I am familiar with the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, but not the Journal Book. Anyone have any info?

Re: [meteorite-list] The Tabor 1753 fall
Hi Chris, the fall of Tabor was firstly documented in 1754 by the Bavarian-Bohemian astronomer Joseph Stepling (1716 - 1778)in his publication: De pluvia lapidea anni MDCCLIII ad Strkov pagum uno milliari Taborio Bohemiae urbe dissitum, et ejus causis meditatio, Pragae 1754 "On the stone rain of the year 1753 at the village Strkov, situated one mile away from the Bohemian town Tabor, and thoughts about its causes." Maybe Edwin Thompson has this monography in his huge library?
