[meteorite-list] Rocks From Space Picture of the Day - June 30, 2007

[Norbert Classen]

Hi Carsten, and All,

I was thinking the very same thing. The RFSPOD photo reminded me more of a
CV3 than of a CR chondrite. There are some neat CAIs visible to the upper
left of the specimen, and the overall texture and color reminds me a bit of
the original Vigarano. More info on and photos of CV and CR chondrites can
be found on my site at:

Best,
Norbert
