[meteorite-list] Rocks From Space Picture of the Day - February 9, 2006

[M come Meteorite Meteorites]

Contemporary lithography of Ernst Florens Friedrich
Chladni, the founder of meteoritics as a science. The
illustration shows Chladni, who was also active in
other fields of science, demonstrating acustic figures
to the French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. Today these
figures are commonly known as 'Chladni-figures'.
Chladni donated his precious collection of 41
meteorites to the Mineralogical Museum Berlin where
they are preserved until the present. Bottom picture
taken from the Berlin MNH web site show an Ensisheim
fragment & Chladnis handwritten label.

and a piece of Krasnojarsk of Chladni collection its
in my collection now.
