Hello, Frederic and the list,=0D
=0D
We was contacted Johannes Kultima yesterday, and it seems, =0D
the hole is not meteorite-origin, there are 2 layers of ice on=0D
the lake, and the bottom layer of ice is intact.=0D
No pieces was found on ice or between the layers. So the most =0D
possible explanation is, the flood water between two ice layers =0D
has been in high pressure and is erupted trough the weak upper layer =0D
and made the hole.=0D
=0D
Also the structure of the hole is not at all like any meteorite-made =0D
I have seen. This kind of smaller holes are quite commmon here=0D
in the spring-time, this one just happened to be a bigger one... =0D
=0D
So, at the moment I=B4m 99% sure, this is a hoax. The "bolide" mentioned=0D
in the news seems to be some brighter one from Lyrides. There were also=0D
a brighter one sporadic one reported in the middle of Finland, but this w=
as=0D
too far from the Lake Pitusj=E4rvi and also too small to be a dropper.=0D
=0D
Mr. Kultima has taken several samples from the broken ice, and they=B4ll=0D
be checked in the university of Helsinki next week by prof. Martti
Lehtinen=B4s =0D
team. Anyway, also prof. Lehtinen=B4s opinion at the moment is, the hole=
 is
made =0D
by the flood water.=0D
=0D
have a nice weekend,=0D

Experts Look for Meteorite in Finnish Lapland=0D
 =0D
25.04.2003, 20.27=0D
A meteorite is believed to have come down in the far north-western =93arm=
=94 of
Finnish Lapland. A large hole appeared sometime between Monday and Wednes=
day
in the ice of Lake Pitsusj=E4rvi. On Tuesday a bright light was seen in t=
he
sky. =0D
 =0D
=0D
=0D
According to Johannes Kultima, an expert at the Geophysical Observatory o=
f
Sodankyl=E4, the flash and the hole may have been the result of a meteori=
te. =0D
Another possible cause of such a hole could be flood water that got stuck
between layers of ice. =0D
The hole in the ice is about three metres wide and seven metres long, and
there is no radiation coming from it. =0D
Researchers from the Sodankyl=E4 Observatory went to Pitsusj=E4rvi to exa=
mine
the site on Friday. =0D
A total of 13 meteorites have been found in Finland so far. =0D
