[meteorite-list] Meteorite Picture of the Day

[MexicoDoug]

Krasnojarsk, a.k.a., the Pallas Iron!  MPOD just had some comments on this historical locality and then it falls in plain exhibition today, January 2nd like magic, or mind reading (Anne and the Carions sweet  :-! )

The only meteorite class named for a meteorite hunter that recovered it (right?), We could've been calling pallasites .... krasnojarskites for their type specimen as is the overall scientific convention ... 

Paul,  fantastic job with MPOD as has been mentioned by other kind folks before me on this list, but never enough!  Thank you!

Cheers!
Doug
