I went over to Mike's to paw through all the slices. I have always been partial to impact melts and this is a real beauty. I had a hard time picking out which slice I wanted, they were all pretty amazing. At the time it still wasn't known if it was lunar or a eucrite so I had to wait a couple weeks to take it home. Fortunately for my pocket book (but not for Mike and Jim) it turned out to be a eucrite. Definately a special meteorite. -- Eric Olson http://www.star-bits.com ---- Norbert Classen <trifid at timewarp.de> wrote: ============= Mike wrote: > http://www.meteoriteguy.com/catalog/nwa2910.htm > Check this one out, "rivers of melt" just got a new > posterboy of a meteorite to show. I agree, that's certainly one of the most beautiful eucrites I've ever seen, and it's even better in person. I've seen the entire stone back in 2005, and I bought one of the first full slices of this beauty, more than a year ago. I'm still very happy with that baby - you just got to love it with all the vesicles in the melt-flow!
