Re: [meteorite-list] Oriented meteorites book sold through CafePress
Has anyone experienced difficulty in getting their Oriented Meteorite book, by Michael Blood, through the CafePress portal? I ordered the book as soon as it was announced on Oct 23. After three weeks of waiting, a perusal of the CafePress websites order status page says that the book shipped and expected delivery is Nov 5. Review of the shipping address indicates it is correct and an inquiry has been submitted to CafePress, but no response as of yet. I received the book 10 days after ordering it. Also, I was sent an email notification with a tracking number a few days after ordering.

Re: [meteorite-list] Oriented Meteorites?
Hello Brandon, All, Oriented typically means that it is evident that a stone attained stable flight for at least the later portion of a given meteorite's ablative time spent falling to Earth. However, this sort of thing can be somewhat subjective, and it is a greyscale ranging from not at all oriented to very much so. Not so much [shield-shaped, minor froth on trailing face]: http://www.fallsandfinds.com/attachments/Image/Katol/complete/72.678/DSCN2719.jpeg http://www.fallsandfinds.com/attachments/Image/Katol/complete/72.678/DSCN2717.jpeg http://www.fallsandfinds.com/attachments/Image/Katol/complete/72.678/DSCN2714.jpeg Very much so: http://www.fallsandfinds.com/page9.php Generally, if a meteorite's crust shows flow-lines, I'll call it flight-marked. If it has a shape that denotes stable aerodynamic flight, then it's at least somewhat oriented. But many sellers don't seem to be able to tell the difference between oriented meteorites and: 1) Broken stones, especially if sand-blasted. If you take a round, fusion-crusted stone and break it in half, you get a heat-shield shape. But not an oriented stone. Especially common with NWA's. Corner chips off of larger stones often exhibit convex surface of crust and concave broken faces. 2) Fusion crusted stones that show no sign of orientation, but are shaped kind of like a heat-shield. Similar to above, but atmospheric break. The broken face fuses over, and an oriented shape results. But, no flow lines or evidence of lipping or thicker crust on trailing face of stone. 3) Stones that show vague traces of orientation, if any. Sometimes, a dealer calls a meteorite oriented and...I just don't get it. Not much else to say...it really is a greyscale, and, while I wouldn't call orientation subjective, someone else might deem flow-lines enough evidence to call something oriented, regardless of shape.

AW: [meteorite-list] oriented meteorites
Humm, I don't know, in which direction this discussion is turning, but I have a ungood feeling. My English is bad. I thought always oriented is an elliptic or short form of flight oriented. Of course one can state that everything (except a ball) is oriented. My finger is oriented in a geometrical space, my chair I'm sitting on, my cat too, at least when she's sleeping... For me orientation means, that a piece was shaped during flight, where at least one axis of the specimen was quite stable parallely to the flight direction, or else expressed, that it was not randomly tumbling. That axis I want to recognize on a specimen, I want to see were the apex and where back is, only then I call it oriented. If the regmaglyptes and pits have different sizes and are not elongated in a more or less directional manner than it doesn't help, nor if a a stone has flow lines, here and there, and on each edge in a different direction, as you can find on fresh stones. Or take a pristine good Sikhote, where you find on many edges also of the pits, many flow lines poiting here and there. Call the specimen to have flight marks, but don't call it oriented! Take a look at the oriented Sikhote now from the Hupes on ebay. Here we see radial flow lines and I see where the apex is. It is oriented. If you want to see an oriented Campo, Go on Peter Marmet's page http://www.marmet-meteorites.com/id9.html And take a look at that large Campo (above the pic of Ali Hmani). There you see, that it is not only shield shape, but that the regmaglyptes are elongated to the edges and roughly pointing to the tip of the shield. Did I misunderstand the term orientation for 25 years now, am I alone with my opinion, has orientation nothing to do with flight? Sniff.
