[meteorite-list] MPOD Nov 17, 2011: Sena

[Bernd V. Pauli]

Rare and beautiful!

Thanks Paul, Doug, and Don José Quiles for sharing!

By the way, "Sena" is also sometimes called "Sigena".

Here's what Mike Bandli posted to Meteorite Central on Nov 23, 2010:

The fall at Sena took place around noon on November 17, 1773... a man
named Miguel Calvo discovered a mysterious stone on the property of his
neighbor, Francisco Gonzalez. He first moved it with his hoe and then by
hand, but withdrew immediately because the stone was "very hot..."

Best wishes,

Bernd
