[meteorite-list] Mercury Meteorites - the short list

[Impactika at aol.com]

Thanks Doug,
 
You can add Mike Zolensky to the list. He drives a Saturn too.
(or did just a few years ago).
 
Maybe Saturn should have made a deal with NASA, and they would still be in 
business now!

Hello Bill,

Reminds me of Anne Black's Saturn.  Mercury's (Mercur's) are all locked 
up in garages and junkyards as of 2011, and Saturn's were re-accreted 
in 2010.  Seems like celestially named vehicles just have bad luck when 
it comes to staying power.  The Hyundai Tucson name is still around for 
the moment ... I guess people identify their automobile more with local 
traffic jams, ripping up the environment, and non-sensical alphanumeric 
suffixes than rockets and road trips around the solar system ...

Kindest wishes
Doug

"5. Mercury Meteor (parent body Mercury or Ford?)"

I nominate the 64 Caliente. Parent body Mercury of course. My first 
celestial
acquisition :)
