Did everyone see this? Some interesting calculation
regarding the dynamics of the Peru meteorite.



I have been saying since the moment I set foot in the
crater, that this meteorite weighed many tons, and I
think there are many tons in the crater, likely in the
form of worthless gunk now after three weeks under
water, but there nonetheless.
If Peru has it's way, that is all that will remain.
Now I know why they are so steamed at my getting 300
grams. They have no plans to recover the meteorite, so
they needed those specks.
