Hello Everyone,
Ok, if you are not interesed in this, you are not interested
in meteorites!
Just got this emailed to me from the University of
Hawaii. This is an interesting article which discusses
the presence of chondrules inside CAIs.

Exactly! Consider the case of copper carbonate. In its hydrated form, it
is a pretty blue crystal; we used to use it in our swimming hole in low
amounts to kill off algae and weeds. In its anhydrous form, it's a greenish

Because they do not contain *l i q u i d* water. The water found

It depends on what form the water is in. In the case of meteorites, surely
it is in various hydrates. It is far easier to dry out a meteorite in the
vacuum of space than it is on the Earth, wouldn't you agree? So if the
bonding of water in the hydrates is strong enough to prevent the former,

Okay, there is water in space.

Hola, Bernd, Tom, List, PS, I would like to add to this, that the reason the

(non-stoichiometric pyrrhotite). Like troilite, pyrrhotite loses its
magnetism as it
becomes saturated with iron (i.e. the net formula). The fac

Careful, please. I'd like to add the little word "just",

Dear List,
Here is a link to check out some really nice bargain priced meteorites.
Don't forget to check out the very cool Sikhote Alin oriented heart and
other treasure. Most are still way below acquisition costs at just 99

Hi Tom,
at David Weir's page it says about Rs:
"The group is highly oxidized, olivine-rich and metal-poor."
and
"..and essentially no FeNi-metal as compared to all other chondrite groups."
Thus no maths or special knowledge necessary.
Praise the Weir!
