Hi All,

Spent a great day yesterday in London with 6 other BIMS members
viewing the Lake House and Danebury meteorites at the Royal society
and at the NHM viewing lots of goodies behind the scenes. One thing we
were told is that there are indications through current research that
Tissint may have been ejected from Mars a very short time
ago....perhaps only 5 years ago....formation age around 500 million
years.... anyone else heard anything along those lines?....quite
something if it was still on Mars 5 years ago....even more of a thrill
holding a sample.

If anyone has seen a research paper or similar on this than please share.

Graham
