Dear Geoff and Met List,
After thinking more about my reply to your question
I wish to apologize if I appeared rude. This was not
my intent.
Perhaps your question can be answered indirectly IF
soil conditions and any penetrations (craters) were
observed. Most likely too late. Another possible
means would to find a rock of a similar structure and
hardness and IF there were any broken PF mets
duplicate how much force it would take to break the
stone.
These are the only ways that I can think of to
perhaps estimate the velocity of fall for PF.
I hope this helps in your question. Sincerely, Dirk
Ross...Tokyo
This would make a good research paper for someone
with the time to do the research.
