I would love to see the looks on the professors face when they discover they have a meteorite celebrity in their class and he brought Nevada's largest stoney meteorite! I wish I could be there!

Included with the lucite encased moon rocks will be a display of "hands on" meteorites for students and the public to inspect. Physics and Astronomy Professor Peter Lanagan and Chemistry Professor Charles Kotulski, who is NASA certified to handle moon samples, will give presentations open to students and the public: Today, April 5th from 3:20PM till 5:30PM Tuesday from 12:20PM till 2PM Thursday from 12:30PM till 2:30PM Friday from 9:00AM till 11:00AM The two professors stated that they hope the opportunity to see and handle exta-terrestial material will inspire students to take an academic interest in the physical sciences. I plan to attend this afternoon's session and bring some planetaries and the new Nevada record chondrite find with me. As mentioned...the sessions are open to the public. Listees who plan to attend a session and would like to have a cup, or a glass, with me please contact off List.
