Hi there,
I remember that one of the probes took by chance a picture of a meteor in
the Martian sky, does anyone remember the link to the picture?

Hi Chris,

Hi Chris,
Some figures:
The museum of the Indian Geological Survey opened in Calcutta in 1856, in
1867 the meteorite collection there already had 247 specimens.
London achieved that number of specimens (250) not before the 1880ies.

ultimate ability of Indian geologists to discriminate meteorites from
meteorwrongs, but the general understanding of the science behind

It is very obvious a hoax. Dimensions are all wrong. Were is the impactor
After looking at the photos again carefully, and reading what someone
