[meteorite-list] Bright bolide visible from Kitt Peak about 1 hour ago

2004-11-17 Thread Matson, Robert
Hi All, Did any of our Arizona list members happen to see a bright bolide in the last hour? It was captured by the automated camera on Kitt Peak -- the exposure is labeled 2004/11/17 07:01:51UT + 180S, presumably meaning that the bolide occurred sometime between 12:01:51am and 12:04:51am MST.

Andreas, to me and everyone I know, main mass always signifies the largest remaining piece of any meteorite. Thus if a Dhofar is found in 3 individuals, the largest is the main mass, but if that piece is cut up, and one of the smaller pieces is left, then I think that should be called the main
