It is normal in scientific writing to use the 0 before the decimal point.
Ask any mathematician or scientist involved in the physical sciences. It is
good for all of us to show that we are scientifically literate. We make an
impression that is judged by professional meteoriticists and it should be
that we are knowledgeable about these things. : =)
