Moon The Moon is at apogee, it’s furthest from the Earth on the 24th at 17:00 and at perigee, it’s nearest to the Earth, on the 12th at 21:00. December’s New Moon in Ophiuchus occurs at 16:17 on the 14th when it passes 10° south of the Sun from this latitude. There is a total solar eclipse not visible from the UK but in the south Atlantic to the mid Pacific, cutting across Argentina and Chile in South America. Better luck in June 2021 when there will be a partial solar eclipse visible from Wolverhampton. It may be possible to see Earthshine on the waning crescent from the 9th to the 14th, and on the waxing crescent Moon’s dark hemisphere from the 15th to the 20th.

    Xb1oxfitateie'ian%Mlseltm PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CENTRAL PARK WEST AT 79TH STREET, NEW YORK 24, N.Y. NUMBER 2 I 90 SEPTEMBER IO, I964 The Meteorite and Tektite Collection of the American Museum of Natural History BY BRIAN MASON' INTRODUCTION The first meteorite received by the American Museum of Natural History was a 46-gram piece of the Searsmont chondrite, presented by G. M. Brainerd of Rockland, Maine, in 1872. For some years the col- lection grew very slowly. Hovey (1896) published the first catalogue, in which he enumerated 55 pieces representing 26 different meteorites. However, the status of the collection was radically changed in 1900 with the acquisition of the Bement collection of minerals, through the gener- osity ofJ. Pierpont Morgan. Besides some 12,000 mineral specimens, the Bement collection contained 580 meteorites, representing nearly 500 different falls and finds. This acquisition established the meteorite col- lection of this museum as one of the great collections of the world, a situation that has been maintained by more recent additions. Some of the more notable additions may be briefly noted. In 1904 three Cape York irons, brought from Greenland in 1897 by R. E. Peary, were deposited in the museum. These are known as "Ahnighito" or "The Tent," "The Woman," and "The Dog" (fig. 1). "Ahnighito," the largest of the three, is approximately 11 feet long, 7 feet high, and 6 feet thick. Various estimates of its weight, ranging from 30 to 80 tons, have been published. Thanks to the Toledo Scale Company it was mounted 1 Chairman, Department of Mineralogy, the American Museum of Natural History.

Caplan Dissertation Committee: Gary R. Huss, Chairperson Kazu Nagashima Hope A. Ishii Greg Ravizza Schelte J. Bus Keywords: chrome-spinel, chromite, Jurassic, meteorites, oxygen isotopes To my ten-year-old self who wanted this for so long, you did it! ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Graduate school will forever be one of my favorite times in life. Through its ups and downs I have become more knowledgeable, confident, and have found true joy in science. I am especially thankful to my advisor, Gary Huss, without whom none of this work would have been possible. He has guided me through graduate school to grow as researcher, including giving me the opportunities to explore new avenues of my work. I would also like to thank my committee members: Kazu Nagashima for always answering my questions with patience, Hope Ishii for work and life guidance, Greg Ravizza for his excitement and new perspectives, and Bobby Bus for help with statistics and his endless curiosity. Thanks to Birger Schmitz who allowed me to work on such a special project and for the incredible opportunity to travel to Sweden, Russia, and Italy to obtain a better understanding of my samples and the area of work. I would also like to thank the HIGP and ERTH (GG) departments for fostering a productive and friendly environment.

  • Meteorites Catalog Format of the Meteorite Catalog
    Meteorites at the Field Museum Prepared by Clarita Nuñez, Collection Manager Irving L. Diamond, Volunteer Brief History Meteorites Catalog Format of the Meteorite Catalog Meenakshi Wadhwa, Curator of Meteorites at the Field Museum with a polished section of the iron meteorite Mount Joy (Catalog No. ME 1051) Meteorites at the Field Museum Brief History How it began The meteorite collection at the Field Museum began in 1893 at the World’s Columbian Exposition with one hundred seventy meteorites that formed a part of the natural history exhibit put up by Ward's Natural Science Establishment. The entire display was bought by Marshall Field, founder and one of the members of the board of trustees of the Field Museum. Growth of Collection A significant addition was made to the meteorite collection when the Ward-Coonley collection was purchased in 1912 for $80,000. Prof. Henry Ward accumulated this collection world-wide by travel and purchase. He cut up and polished some of his original meteorites and used them to trade for rare and extremely valuable pieces. The Ward-Coonley collection contains some rare pieces from the James Gregory collection in London (like the 141 kg Youndegin, the 61.7 kg Wabar and 1/3 of the original mass of Pipe Creek) and choice pieces from Count Julian Siemaschko collection of St. Petersburg (noteworthy of mention are Indarch, Mighei, Pavlodar and Ochansk). In addition Ward also collected and purchased some large specimens from all over North and South America by sending flyers to geologists and dealers announcing that he desired to purchase meteorites.
