I have a question about meteorites.
Hi List:
I have a question regarding different shades of fusion crusts. I realize
that they are black, but I have read that some are greenish (lunar stones) or
purplish (CMs) or brownish in some cases.
Are the different shades in the fusio
Hello Darren,
No it's not ;-]

Would it be these? Lumps of iron? Check. North
instruments cost about 6000-8000 euros. So, you have to see if
the finds will cover the price.
See you in Ensisheim, friendly,

Dear Pele;
Sand dunes are a mostly active thing as they grow vegetation if they do
not move. I would estimate that due to the continued dryness of the
deserts of Africa and that sand dunes were there then that your
meteorites have a 50% chance of being burried and the same chance of
being expo
Hello to the List.
I read an old document about very big masses of iron
lying in sand* in the 1930's in a north african
country. I would like to know if these masses would be
covered by sand now or if there's a chance or
techniques (sonar, infrasounds...) to recover it ?
Best regards,
Pierre-Mar

Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that one of the
Apollo missions returned a soil sample with a 1 gram
fragment of a carbonaceous chondrite in it.
I can't remember which mission it was, but I think
that it is recorded in the Catalog of Meteorites.
I'll have to look it up.

Ok Mark and Christopher I'll take a stab I don't know how
untechnical I can be.
Q1:First he wanted to know if a meteor hits the moon is it technically
a meteorite or are only meteors that hit the earth called a meteorite? My
answer was that once a meteoroid hits a terrestrial b
Sounds like you covered most of the bases with your explanations to
Christopher -- I don't see any that I would substantially alter.
Survivability of a meteorite on the Moon's surface once it hits would
depend on: size of the object, type of terrain it hit (a big dust pool
vs. solid rock vs. gra
Hello all,
Tonight my 8 year old son Christopher and I were
out looking at the moon with our wholly inadequate telescope. It is fine for
looking at the moon but lacks the optics needed for much else.
Anyways he is a very smart kid and asked me a
couple of questions that I could not answer
