That is the area where I spent more time than anywhere else.That will change tomorrow.In the middle of the street, the meteorite hit at a very fast moving speed.When it hit, it took out about 3/4 to an inch of pavement.About 9 inches round.It then richocheted at about a 4 in. level above the street coreening into the street curb at high impact.That is where I got most of my micro's from.The black fusion crust was everywhere.Then it rose up to at least 6 feet really quick to hit the house on winslow st and take out some of the guys aluminum siding.... (Mark edit) .....and I'll see ya all out in the strew-whatever tomorrow. steve arnold, chicago Received on Mon 19 Jul 2004 02:37:55 PM PDT |
