Hello fellow list members,

I was unable to attend the 65th Meteoritical Society meeting so I have =
not received the latest announcements concerning NWA 998. I will be in =
touch later on in the week with Dr. A.J. Irving after he returns from a =
NASA Mars workshop in the field. One very important feature he was =
going to discuss is the Isotopic data thus far recorded for this Unique =
Orthopyroxene-bearing Nahklite. The newly published data is so vastly =
different from the other five Nahklites that several scientists are =
focusing in on this new information that was supposed to be addressed at =
last Fridays meeting. This new data implies that NWA 998 is not source =
crater paired with the other five Nahklites which all have similar =
crystallization ages. The data also has other implications that go far =
beyond NWA 998 not being source crater paired. Using current scientific =
models for these isotopes, this rock will forever change the way =
scientists think about Mars. NWA 998 is a very scientifically important =
find and research has just begun so expect to read more, soon.

Wishing everybody the best,

Adam Hupe

  Hi Mike and List,
  =20
> Does anyone have any news from the meeting last week in California? =
I know=20
> NWA 998 was to make some big news.=20
  =20
  The only abstract referencing NWA 998 (the sixth known Nahklite) was
  "Petrology and Isotopic Composition of Orthopyroxene-bearing Nakhlite
  NWA 998" by A. J. Irving, S. M. Kuehner, D. Rumble III, R. W. Carlson,
  A. C. Hupe and G. M Hupe. I didn't hear of any big news about the
  456-gram meteorite, but then I missed most of the presentations due
  to work conflicts and a particularly poorly-timed kidney stone attack
  (is there ever a good time?!)
  =20
  I know Adam and Greg subscribe to Meteorite Central -- if anyone would
  know about news w.r.t. NWA 998, it would surely be them. Perhaps
  they will chime in? --Rob
