[meteorite-list] Rocks from Space Picture of the Day - September 18, 2010

[Martin Altmann]

Have a little bit to correct Rob's translation of the label.

It reads:
Oldest iron with known fall-time.

>From Elbogen the exact date of the fall, isn't known.
In as far the label is correct,
but doesn't exclude Elbogen as an observed fall :-)

Best!
Martin

Beautiful slice. It is also interesting that NHMV's label suggests that they
do not recognize Elbogen (Ca. 1400) as the oldest iron fall. Why?
