[meteorite-list] Tektite, Parent Source of Quartz....Comet?

[MARK BOSTICK]

Hello IMCA and meteorite list members,

I am sure there are many flaws with this ideal, but how about the tektites 
came from a comet hitting the earth.  Quartz is formed with water, comets 
have(?) large oceans/ocean of water.   This also explains why tektites 
appears to have broke up in a low orbit.  Comet gets captured by earth, 
swings around 187 times (why not) before it starts breaking up, then each 
piece, hits earth at different revolutions, creating several tektite strewn 
fields over a short period of time.  Color and features of tektite, are half 
decided by the target rock they hit.  Most of these comet, quartz heavy, 
meteoroids hit the same basic mantel, creating the classic black tektites.  
In Indo-China, the most fell, hitting the same target rock, creating 4 or 5 
overlapping strewn fields...answering the funny distribution there.  Average 
meteor here was only 3-4 km. and the craters created were possibly in 
locations that would be hard to search.  There are several military or past 
military zones, these small craters could be in.

In North America, two meteoroids hit different target rock....we got 
Georgiaites and Bediasites.  Note that the North American meteoroids had the 
same basic entry point and therefore created a strewn field almost in the 
same pattern, making it appear to be one meteoroid.

The comet impactor, part quartz, and part what we would recognize as 
meteorite, final break up happened over Australia, and we get 1000's of 
button tektites.  Weathering destroyed most of these.

Clear Skies,
