Hi Rob, Sterling and List,
Thanks for the reality check Rob, a.k.a. that pesky detail called
conservation of mass that insists on being respected even in sexy mudpits.
Sterling, what % is spalled backwards in these (much-to-be-desired) models
of such low-end impact energies in somewhat "amorti

I wasn't making a comparison between Carancas Crater

Hmm Greg,
We dont borrow numbers becouse we don't, its not fair in relations to
buyers and sellers who "own" their NWA numbers and its not profesional to

Hey Walter,
If, and when, this is determined to be a fall (they all are, aren't they),
there will be no borrowing of names, numbers or otherwise. Is everyone
borrowing other names like Park Forest (fall), Amgala (fall), Gold Basin
(find), Canyon Diablo (find), Mounionalusta (find), etc. etc.
This question was asked earlier but has not been cleared up.

it's the 16th, as Svend Buhl and I found out (see the Niger Meteorite

If someone wants to send me a slice or piece of a pallasite, I will be more
than happy to assist in this endeavor. It would probably need to be at least a

Take a look at this chondrule-- it looks sort of like it has been "torn", with
ragged edges and the missing piece lying slighty to the right:
