Tangrong Elementary School Students Hunt for Micrometeorites
Pingtung, Taiwan Seven Tang Long Elementary School students and their teachers with school staff took a field trip to hunt for micrometeorites in the hopes of finding Taiwan's first meteorites prior to a lecture about meteorites given by Dirk Ross, a meteorite researcher from Japan, at the Ping Tung, Taiwan 2015 International Meteorite Lecture and Meeting -2015屏東國際隕石研討會前精彩的表演 held on June 13, 2015. Results of the students hunting will be announced once analysis has been performed by Dirk Ross on their collected samples. Students at the lecture and meeting were able to view meteorites and micrometeorites.
Thank you to the Tangrong Elementary School teachers and staff, as well as Principal Ting Sha Jen Chin（汀雪見晴）. Special thanks to Mr. Andy Wang for coordinating this event.

Be ready for some bolide, fireball, and meteor activity!
