I concur with Norbert - great video, and a nice story to read in the latest issue of METEORITE, which I can only recommend to all those who did not already read it or are not subscribed to the magazine (PS: something you should think about to do if not yet done! I believe former editor and "captain" Joel Schiff would be satisfied with his ship rolling on nicely).

May be such a "3D-rotation-view" of a specimen, while still being quite an outstanding presentation right now at this time, will become sort of a standard in the near future. I just switched to a DSL flatline internet service with up to 16.000 Megabits/s, which you can get here in the bigger cities in Germany, and which downloads such a movie file in only a few seconds or even fractions of a second on the extreme end, making information quickly available at a rate unbelievable even in the recent past.

Thank you Greg, for sharing this one,
Alex
Berlin/Germany
