Hello Adam and List,

Aumale, L6, veined, Fell 1865, Aug 25, 1100-1200 hrs
Shergotty, SNC, Fell 1865, Aug 25, 09:00 hrs.

The Tunguska event "coincides numerically" with
the fall of the Kagarlyk, L6, chondrite.

Lanzenkirchen, L4, and Ellemeet, ADIO also "coincide
numerically": Fell 1925, Aug 28, 19:25 and 11:30 hrs.

Same for:

Repeev Khutor, IIF, Fell 1933, Aug 08, 20:00 hrs
Sioux County, AEUC, Fell 1933, Aug 08, 10:30 hrs

and:

Rumuruti, R3-6, Fell 1934, Jan 28, 22:45 hrs
Sazovice, L5, Fell 1934, Jan 28, 20:00 hrs

Selakopi, H5, Fell 1939, Sep 26
Glanggang, H5-6, Fell 1939, Sep 26

Atoka, L6, Fell 1945, Sep 17
Soroti, IRANOM, Fell 1945, Sep 17, 01:10 hrs

Beddgelert, H5, Fell 1949, Sep 21, 01:47 hrs
Akaba, L6, Fell 1949, Sep 21

Manych, LL3.5, Fell 1951, Oct 20, 15:30 hrs
Yambo, H5, Fell 1951, Oct 20, 21:00 hrs

Shirokovsky, PALANOM, Fell 1956, Feb 01, 03:30 hrs
Idutywa, H5, Fell 1956, Feb 01, 18:15 hrs

São Jose do Rio Preto, H4, Fell 1962, Aug 14, 08:00 hrs
Bogou, IAB, Fell 1962, Aug 14, 10:00 hrs

Devri-Khera, L6, Fell 1994, Oct 30, 21:00 hrs
Lohawat, AHOW, Fell 1994, Oct 30, 23:45 hrs

The "coincides numerically" is the critical part here
because the dates would have to be adjusted for the
obvious differences in:

a) latitude and longitude
b) different time zones

Best regards,

Bernd
