Summary
[edit]DescriptionNovato2a.jpg |
English: "2012, October 24 - SECOND METEORITE CORROBORATES LISA'S FIND! An apology may have been too hasty. Lisa's find is a genuine meteorite, says Jenniskens today. Corroborating evidence came from a second find just like it. On Monday, meteorite hunter Brien Cook of Sacramento found a second (65 gram) stone just like Lisa's, at a location in Novato 2.5 miles southeast of Lisa's find. He initially threw it out, but when he saw the picture of Lisa's find posted below, identified by Jenniskens as a meteorite, he retrieved it from the waste basket on Tuesday. Today, he cut the stone in two and after posting the result found wide support in the meteorite hunter's community that this was an ordinary chondrite, albeit not so ordinary."
"We are in the process of finding out exactly what type of meteorite we are dealing with here, says Jenniskens, but we now understand that the layered structure of the fusion crust that made me doubt myself is not the result of terrestrial weathering. That is a big relief! What a privilege to get to study such an unusual and hard to identify meteorite!" |
