Interesting idea, now we just need infrared binoculars. Do you have any? I've
seen the starlight stuff on the market but not infrared.
Cheers,

I'm probably the last person of many who have already thought of this, but
after watching some video of various pilots seeking out military tanks using
infrared goggles or binoculars, has anyone here tried looking for iron
meteorites with similar equipment? The iron tanks glowed from the heat it
gave off at night and appeared to be easily noticed. It would seem that
someone could scan various isolated terrain such as mountains, desert sands,
dry lakes etc and see the heat emitting from iron meteorites if they were
present?
