Re: [meteorite-list] COMET P/1783 W1 = 2003 A1 = 2009 R2 (PIGOTT-LINEAR-KOWALSKI)

Thanks Katsu, this is my first comet in nearly two years. This one had gotten lost after an encounter with Jupiter (0.0605 AU) exactly three years ago to the day of recovery. -- Richard Kowalski http://fullmoonphotography.net IMCA #1081 --- On Sat, 9/12/09, ohts...@jb3.so-net.ne.jp wrote:

[meteorite-list] Meteorite Postcards

Hey Mike, I think the postcards are a great idea! You're taking a very good approach to this hunt. I for one say if there are meteorites to be found in this area, you'll find 'em! The only thing I would add to the description would be to look for tiny metal flecks and small circular rounded

Re: [meteorite-list] Moon Rocks illegal?

It is legal to own -some- moon-dust stained items released by Astronauts, which contain lunar material (at a microscopic level) - Velcro, Beta Cloth, etc.. They have long been sold by artifact dealers without restriction. This is the ONLY way to own 'moon dust' from Apollo. I've seen some nice swat

Re: [meteorite-list] Moon Rocks illegal?

Greg, the first article you cite states it correctly. It is illegal (in the US) to own any lunar material that made it to earth via an Apollo mission. It is perfectly legal to own lunar material that makes it to earth "naturally". -- Richard Kowalski http://fullmoonphotography.net IMCA #1081

Re: [meteorite-list] Moon Rocks illegal?

I beg to differ that they are not rare any more. A single person could easily carry all of the known lunar meteorites on their back at once. If you compared to this to diamond production, you would need bulldozers and dumptrucks to care a single day's yield. Best Regards, Adam - O

Re: [meteorite-list] Moon Rocks illegal?

Greg, Those articles are very old and outdated. The Geotimes article is dated Sept. 2002 The Madsci one is from Dec. 2000. Things heve changed, there are now over 50 known, different lunar meteorites. Not so rare anymore. Anne M. Black _http://www.impactika.com/_ (http://www.impactika.com/)

Hello John Circular diamond coring bits only came into use recently. The Willamette donation was in the early 1900's. I can only assume that the saw method of the time dictated the location of the cut: large heavy frames using a wire loop with abrasives hand fed into the grove. It is not like
