Hi

I thought 'main mass' was already well defined? For years it's been the
largest single piece recovered from the fall site. And that's it.

If it gets cut then the main mass was cut - end of story.

if an even larger piece is found at the strewn field then that would
become the main mass. (Or in the separate case of NWA's & pairings, the
new main mass would be classified and would be only the main mass of the
new number that was issued)


But we don't want to talk about pairings anymore DO WE ?!!!
