Hi Richard,

>IOW, amateurs who contribute to the Science of Meteorites

Yes there are. Only a very few of these, who are doing the field work and
who brought and are bringing the largest part of the world meteorite
inventory to the labs, institutes and museums
do have an academic degree in geology.

And each amateur purchasing a meteorite contributes to science in helping
these people to continue their work.

Best!
Martin
