[meteorite-list] age of meteorites

[Michael Mulgrew]

No meteoroid body travels anywhere near "a subtantual [sic] percentage
of the speed of light".  Although their relative ages will be
different based on Einstein's theory, their practical age is
realistically unaffected I would think.

Michael in so. Cal.
