Meteorite Shower in Park Forest, Illinois
PSRD:: Meteorite Shower in Park Forest, Illinois http://www.psrd.hawaii.edu/Aug04/ParkForest.html posted August 26, 2004 Meteorite Shower in Park Forest, Illinois --- An L5 chondrite strewnfield is centered at Park Forest, Illinois, a southern suburb of Chicago. Written by Linda M. V. Martel Hawai'i Institute of Geophysics and Planetology Steven Simon (University of Chicago) and seven colleagues from the University of Chicago, the Planetary Studies Foundation, Harper College, Pacific Northwest National Lab, and the Field Museum in Chicago have classified the meteorite fragments that fell on Chicago's southern suburbs on the night of March 26, 2003. Described as ".. the most densely populated region to be hit by a meteorite shower in modern times," the village of Park Forest is at the center of the strewnfield and fortuitously also happens to be home to the Simon family, who answered scores of phone calls from neighboring meteorite finders. No injuries were reported though plenty of roofs, windows, walls, and cars were hit, and the police department took individual fusion-crusted fragments into custody as evidence (see picture above). Its chemical and mineralogical compositions establish the Park Forest meteorite as an L5 chondrite, one of the most primitive groups of known meteorites. It is a strongly shocked monomict breccia (a term applied to a breccia made of one kind of rock) with light-colored clasts in a very dark matrix. The team measured cosmic radionuclides in Park Forest and found nearly zero 56Co and high 60Co, values that indicate a large preatmospheric mass. They estimate the meteoroid was at least 900 kilograms and possibly as large as 7000 kilograms before it broke apart in the atmosphere, of which only about 30 kilograms of fragments have been recovered. -

1962-11 Millman
MINUTES SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING OF THE METEORITICAL SOCIETY held at Los Angeles, Calif., Sat., 17 Nov. 1962 PRESENT: President Peter M. Millman, Past-President John A. Russell, Editor Dorrit Hoffleit, Councilor C. H. Cleminshaw, and Secretary Gerald L. Rowland. Since Peter Millman and Dorrit Hoffleit were both in Los Angeles at the same time, and since it was possible to get a quorum of the Council together, President Millman called a Special meeting of the Council for Sat., 17 Nov. 1962. The last Council minutes (of 4 Sept., 1962) were read in order that those present might know the business that was transacted at Socorro, New Mexico. After some discussion, it was moved, seconded, and approved that arrangements be made for the transfer of a suitable number (approximately 40) of the 4 issues of Vol. I of Meteoritics from Springer Transfer Co. in Albuquerque, N. M., to John Russell at U.S.C. The Council approved the expenditure of whatever funds are necessary for this operation. John Russell reported that the Leonard Memorial Medal, which was displayed at the Socorro meeting, was unsatisfactory and that it is being re-done by the Southern California Trophy Co. The Council was reminded that the fund established for the Leonard Memorial Medal is still open for contributions. The cost of engraving and striking each individual medal to be presented will call for a nominal expenditure from time to time. The Council next suggested the following chairmen (subject to the individual's acceptance) for the standing committees of the Society: Eugene Shoemaker (Membership and Fellowship); Oscar Monnig (Finance and Endowment); Editor Dorrit Hoffleit (Publications). -

O Lunar and Planetary Institute Provided by the NASA Astrophysics Data System the BELLS CARBONACEOUS CHONDRITE
BELLS-A CARBONACEOUS CHONDRITE RELATED TO C1 AND C2 CHONDRITES; Andrew M. ~avisland Edward 01sen2. l~amesFranck Institute, University of Chicago, 5640 South Ellis Avenue, Chicago, IL 60637; 2~epartmentof Geology, Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, IL 60605. The Bells, Texas meteorite fell on September 9, 1961. It was classified as a Type I1 carbonaceous chondrite by Mason [I]. Bulk samples of Bells have been found to contain 13 to 16 wt% magnetite by magnetic methods [2,3]. This is far more magnetite than is normally found in C2 chondrites and is slightly higher than the levels found in C1 chondrites [3]. McSween and Richardson [41 measured the bulk composition of "matrix" in many carbonaceous chondrites (including Bells) by broad beam electron microprobe analysis. They found a range of compositions among the phyllosilicate matrices of C1 and C2 chond- rites. Bells and the C1 chondrites are at the Fe-poor, Mg- and Si-rich end of this range. McSween [5] point-counted many C2 chondrites and found Bells to be among the most matrix-rich of them. He found a correlation between the composition of matrix and vol% matrix and suggested that increasing degree of alteration of chondrules and inclusions leads to increasing matrix fraction and decreasing Fe content of the matrix. According to his model, Bells should be among the most heavily altered of the C2 chondrites. Until recently, most of the recovered samples of Bells have been in the private collection of Mr. Oscar Monnig and the only sample available for pet- rographic study has been a tiny thin section.
