Give me a break, anything that would make a 300 meter crater would have taken the village with it. Not a meteorite, end of story. Likely some kind of gas explosion. mike ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darren Garrison" <cynapse_at_charter.net> To: <meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com> Sent: Friday, December 30, 2005 8:38 AM Subject: [meteorite-list] Any of you collectors also divers? http://newsroom.finland.fi/stt/showarticle.asp?intNWSAID=11281&group=General Meteorite suspected of hitting river in northern Finland 30.12.2005 at 16:10 A large explosion crater found in the Mantokoski river in Utsjoki, northern Finland, may be caused by a meteorite, said Juhani Harjunharja, chair of the Ursa astronomical association, in a statement Friday. The crater has an estimated diameter of as much as 300 meters. Samples are being sent to the University of Oulu for examination. The possibility of the crater being caused by the remnant of a satellite has not been ruled out. "For my part I am strongly leaning towards the opinion that it is a meteorite", Mr Harjunharja said. The impact zone is approximately one kilometre from the closest settled area. It is estimated that the impact occurred before Christmas. /STT/ ?
