Dear List Members,
A new fall has just occurred in Poland: a hammer!
Here is some information about the circumstanses of the fall:
The meteorite fell on 30 April at 6 a.m. in Soltmany villige, near the
town of Gizycko. The ~1kg stone hit the roof of a building and was
discovered broken into a few pieces. This information about the fall
comes from a Mr. Roman who called Andrzej Pilski from Frombork
Astronomical Observatory. Andrzej Pilski immediately asked Woreczko
and Wadi to go to the fall location, take photos, and ask eyewitnesses
for reports, as well as to see the stone and obtain a sample for
analysis.
The classification will be done by professor T. Przylibski from the
Wroclaw University of Technology. Frombork Observatory wants to buy
meteorite for their museum.
Best regards
Wadi & Woreczko
