[meteorite-list] Kalahari lunar vs NWA 5000

[Darryl Pitt]

Folks....

NWA 5000 is a spectacular meteorite whose resume did not require enhancing.  I wholly agree there is no lunar that's nicer.  That said, Kalahari 009 exists —it's a fact.  I am not going to climb into the details other than to share that the owner is a paranoid eccentric who has gone to great lengths to remain anonymous.  That's all that is at work here.  Nothing nefarious....just put Occam's Razor back into play.   In addition, I know of two other lunar masses that are larger than NWA 5000—one reassembled and one intact.

If anyone claims to have a lunar nicer or larger please put it on the scale and show it. Otherwise it's all just talk.
