METEORITE RECOVERY PROJECT

HARVEY NININGER CAME TO THE CONCULSION THAT THERE IS
ONE METEORITE PER SQUARE MILE. WORK DONE BY THE METEOR
OBSERVATION AND RECOVERY PROJECT SHOWED THAT ABOUT
23,930 METEORITES RANGING IN SIZE FROM 4 OUNCES TO 20
POUNDS LAND SOMEWHERE ON EARTH EVERY YEAR. OF THESE ¾
ARE LOST IN THE OCEANS, LEAVING ABOUT 7,500 OVER THE
ENTIRE EARTH’S LAND AREA. THIS WORKS OUT TO ONE
METEORITE FOR EVERY 10,000 SQUARE MILES PER YEAR. PAGE
307 ROCKS FROM SPACE 0.RICHARD NORTON.

OHIO HAS 40,953 SQUARE MILES 640 ACRES EQUALS ONE
SQUARE MILE. 640 X 40,953 EQUALS 26,209,920 ACRES IN
OHIO. IN NININGER’S OPINION THAT IS 40,942 METEORITES
MINUS THE 11 RECOVERED METEORITES IN OHIO. MORP
FIGURES WOULD BE 24,565METEORITES IN 6000 THOUSAND
YEARS- I’AM PRO CREATION. THAT WORKS OUT TO ONE
METEORITE FOR EVERY 1.6 MILE.

ARE PROJECT IS TO DO 100,000 ACRES. IF THERE IS A
SIZABLE METEORITE PEOPLE WILL RECALL THE ROCK. IF IS
NOT SIZABLE IT WILL NOT RING A BELL. WHEN HUNTING
METEORITES DOOR TO DOOR I JUST SHOW PEOPLE PICTURES OF
METEORITES. BASICALLY GIVING THEM A FAST EDUCATION IN
METEORITES . HERE ARE THE RESULTS SO FAR A LOT OF
PEOPLE WHERE NOT HOME.
