I think it's still on the net in the abstracts. -Robert Beauford : ) Hello List Good Morning to all and happy day=A1=A1=A1. I was reading = Rocks from=20 Space and looking at my collection, thinking about meteorites. In one = part=20 of the book Norton says that asteroids in early solar system were = perturbed=20 by Jupiter's gravity, sending them aoutside the solar system=A1...I = thought a=20 bout that, there must be several asteroids from Earth that are wandering = and=20 traveling somewhere there aoutside our solar system within out Milky=20 Way....If thats possible, maybe the other way is too=A1=A1=A1=A1. This is what I mean, there are millions of stars in our Milky WAy, which = thousands (and more=A1=A1) may have planets forming or formed, there are = also=20 millions of dark bodies, and gas clouds, where asteroids or = planetesimals=20 may be forming, well if a star passes near one of them or just another = big=20 planet, they might be millions of pieces of rock wandering our Milky = WAy,=20 what are the chances of one entering the solar system, making its way=20 through Earth and more important what chracteristics should it=20 show?????...Is there any expert on this topic that can answer this, = maybe=20 they have an older isotopic record, but the isotopes and daughter maybe = are=20 destroyed after several million years, do we have any chances to idenify = an=20 intruder from outside the Solar System?????? Maybe we have a meteorite from Outside the Solar System in our = collections,=20 but we don't know, maybe we should look closer and remenber that next = time=20 we hold a NWA meteorite. Thats what I like of NWA meteorites, we never = know=20 what have they seen=A1=A1=A1=A1 Rafael B.
