It's been a busy summer so far. We have had five falls since June 01, 2018 :

Jun 01, 2018 - "Jinghong" (unofficial) (L5 chondrite?) : China (Hammer)
Jun 02, 2018 - "Central Kalahari" (unofficial) (unknown type) : Botswana
Jun 21, 2018 - Ozerki (L6 chondrite) : Russia
Jul 27, 2018 - "Glendale" (unofficial) (ordinary chondrite) : Arizona USA
Aug 12-17?, 2018 - "Bhakkar" (unofficial) (ordinary chondrite?) : Pakistan

There were three more before these, for a total of eight. Only two
(Hamburg and Ozerki) have been classified, approved, and published.

Good luck to the hunters!
