But it is interesting to see them find meteorites from a few ounces to several hundred pounds on a regular bases. During a recent episode they showed a map of Kansas with known meteor strikes/fields - apparently associated with past meteorite finds. There appeared to be more then a hundreds sites depicted in the map. So now I am wondering just how many known sites there are and also the number of known impact craters.
