The Institute of Meteoritics has already distributed samples of our
Tissint material to researchers at the Carnegie Institution for
"organics" studies and to the Univ. of Tuebingen for magnetics
measurements. That is one of the main goals of our Meteorite Museum --
to loan researchers our meteorites. The other main goals are to
display meteorites for the public and preserve the collection for
posterity. Luckily, we are fortunate to be able to do all three of
these functions with our recent Tissint acquisition!
