Two Wisconsin Elementary School Students Find Meteorites! 23APR2010

Wisconsin Meteorite:

A Very well written article in the Wisconsin State Journal Paper

Friday, April 23, 2010 4:17 AM

by Brian Cox-Chicago, Illinois, USA
posted by drtanuki 4:29am in Tokyo, JAPAN

This is an excellent article that was written in the Wisconsin paper that honestly make me very happy and puts Meteorite Collectors in a very positive and bright light. This writer got to the heart of the story by writing about the children and their families and their farms and how Michael Farmer and Terry Boudreaux went to the local combined school for Grant-Iowa counties on the border of the two counties and spoke at the Iowa/Grant Elementary-Middle School and gave a talk and discussion and interaction with the children on the new Wisconsin meteorite fall. Congratulations to our Meteorite Hunting friends and the school and farmers and the cook and his wife where one of the first meteorites were found on their farm. I salute you all for great work in the field and your humanitarian work.

Background Story about TWO Student`s Meteorite Finds
by Mike Farmer, Meteorite Hunter
After Terry Boudreaux and I gave a two hour presentation to more than 500 kids at the Grant-Iowa County school yesterday, we asked all the kids who was going to hunt for meteorites during recess. Of course all the children screamed and raised their hands. Minutes later, while news crews were shooting footage and doing interviews with us in the schoolyard, a 6 year old boy screamed he found a meteorite, which was a beautiful and perfect 100% crusted ~40 gram stone.

The school went crazy and another stone was found by a young girl a little while later. It was amazing to speak to the school, and every child there saw or heard the meteorite go overhead. I think that all these kids will be searching for meteorites now. The 8th-grade science teacher at the school told me he dropped his teaching plans for the next week and has moved his classes into researching meteorites on the net and doing reports on meteorites and meteorite falls. He was so happy at all of this and said that the children are so excited to come to class since the fall last week and did not want to talk about anything but the meteorite anyway so he went with it. I was mobbed by kids wanting to talk about my trips to Africa and how to find meteorites, so I think a few old falls may turn up on the farms from all this.

To bridge the gap between meteorite dealers and scientific institutions, I presented one of the stones I found as a gift to the Field Museum for the meteorite collection.

Lyrids Meteor Shower Peak Viewing 22APR2010

Lyrids meteor shower

posted on YouTube by lazerbim118 (1 view)— 22 April 2010 —
- The Lyrid meteor shower is the first significant shower of 2010. Dating as far back as March 687 BC, the Lyrids make an annual show usually beginning on April 16th. This northern hemisphere shower occurs when the Earth passes through debris from the Comet Thatcher (C/1861 G1), discovered by A.E. Thatcher on April 4, 1861. The Comet Thatcher is expected to pass Earth again in 2267. This year, the Lyrids will peak on April 22nd with an expected show of 10 - 12 meteors per hour according to experts. The radiant of this shower is between the constellations Lyra and Hercules.

Typically, the Lyrid meteor shower presents a modest show of 10-20 meteors per hour. Occasionally, the Earth will pass through a dense clump of debris, resulting in an increased rate of meteors. In 1982, some observers counted as many as 90 meteors per hour. In 1945, a Japanese observer counted 112 meteors in 67 minutes, most of them Lyrids.

Optimal viewing time for the Lyrids will occur early morning on April 22nd. The moon will set between 1 and 2 AM, leaving a dark sky until dawn. During this time, find a dark place as far away from city lights as possible. Look to the east, giving your eyes at least 10-15 minutes to adjust to the night sky. Lie back and scan the sky for meteors with a trail that points back toward the sparkling blue-white star Vega. - http://budurl.com/SaveThisVideo
