I have uploaded the first iteration of the Google Earth file at:

http://fullmoonphotography.net/images/Meteorites/Public_Meteorite_Collections_v1.kmz

or

http://tinyurl.com/m3u3qv

I included most of those that were suggested, but a few I couldn't find.

I did include the Denver Museum of Nature & Science along with the Colorado School of Mining Museum.

Also included is the museum at Meteor Crater, the two locations where Nininger's American Meteorite Museum were located and the UA Mineral Museum at Flandrau here in Tucson.

Please take a look at it and let me know if:

I have any misplaced

Any LARGE public collections that were missed.

There are any that I should remove because there are few if any meteorites on display. (Denver Museum of Nature & Science comes to mind) I'd also like to know if I included any collections that cannot be viewed by the public by mistake.

I might as well request your suggestions on smaller public collections that you thought were worth the time and effort to view, so this file can have more complete coverage. Please let me know if the collection you are submitting is large or small.

Thanks
