Scientists Study Fragments of the Chelyabinsk Meteorite
By examining its fragments, scientists from Moscow's Vernadsky Institute of Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry studied the composition and origin of the meteorite that hit the Chelyabinsk Region on the morning of February 15. They said meteorites can provide clues as to how the solar system was formed.
Russia Chebarkul Chelyabinsk meteorite chondrite LL5 100% original
15.02.2013
Comparing reviews and videos of witnesses of a meteorite, I came to the conclusion that the trajectory of a meteorite was from the city to the village Emazhelinsk Trawniki. Taking a map and tremos tea, went to look for pieces of the meteorite exploded over the alleged search area. Arriving at the place and found a back road in the field, I started to walk across the field and found a small hole in the snow. Carefully digging snow holes in the first found a snow cone tightly melted and then re-frozen snow, and at the end of the cone found rozen-in stone and frosted black. It was a meteor!
Already known and type Chelyabinsk meteorite - LL 5, shock fraction S4, ordinary chondrite. Despite the name, this is a rarity. Of all known meteorites such - only 2%! The age of this meteorite - at least 4.5 billion years!
Most chondrites appeared after the solar system formed - 4.5 billion years ago.
As a result of research, scientists have found that fragments of the main minerals are silicates: olivine (Mg, Fe) 2SiO4 and orthopyroxene (Mg, Fe) 2Si2O6. In subordinate discovered Fe sulfides and Ni (troilite, FeS, heazlewoodite Ni3S2), - and of native metals Fe and Ni (kamacite, taenite). In addition to the above, at this stage of the research in these fragments established chromite (Fe, Mg) Cr2O4, clinopyroxene (diopside CaMgSi2O6), plagioclase (Ca, Na) Al2Si2O8 glass and feldspar composition. Perhaps the presence of minerals phosphides Fe and Ni.

Chelyabinsk Meteor Petition
Moved by the cosmic coincidence of a meteor exploding over Chelyabinsk, Russia, and Earth's narrowly missing a collision with an even larger asteroid -- both on Friday, February 15, 2013 -- I initiated a petition to the White House on that day to support full funding of efforts to detect and deflect any asteroid or comet that is heading our way. The petition is now closed. The threat remains.
The actual text of the petition was as follows:
Whereas on the day this petition has been initiated, the Earth is narrowly avoiding a collision with Asteroid 2012 DA14 and a giant meteor explosion over Russia injured hundreds of people, and whereas new comets arrive on a completely random and unpredictable basis, and whereas such objects can destroy a city or even the entire human race, and whereas the 2010 report of the NASA Advisory Council Task Force on Planetary Defense advised that advance preparation is critical, we hereby respectfully request that the White House accord due urgency to seeking full funding for both detection and deflection technologies, including space-based observatories and research and testing of all possible means of diverting the whole range of sizes of objects on short notice.

The statue is twice as old as the Egyptian pyramids, and contains arguably the most ancient coded message on the planet
The Shigir Idol, is estimated to be 9,500 years old and is regarded as the worlds most mysterious object.
It was made during the Mesolithic period, around 7,500 BCE but was only discovered in 1890 in Kirovgrad, Sverdlovsk region, in the Ural Mountains.
The statue is currently displayed in the “Historic Exhibition” Museum in Yekaterinburg, Russia and is guarded 24 hours a day by Russian special forces.

1908 Mystery in Tunguska, Russia. Meteorite etc.
George Carey uncovers the mystery behind the massive explosion that shook Tunguska, Siberia in 1908 which has been variously attributed to a meteorite and a crashed UFO.
Here's some blurb I found [amongst others] on the Channel 4 feedback page which I thought was an interesting summary of the documentary's approach.
===
I don't think the documentary was as bad as people are making out. I can however see that George Carey's style clashed a bit with a 'serious' take on the topic - not that he made light of it, more that he seemed to mistake keeping a cynical distance for some kind of objective reporting.
What was great was the coverage of the 'space ship' and extra-terrestrial theories when the crew went to see the museum academic. Despite what the majority would have you believe - some sort of ET involvement is actually supported by a major researcher for the Russian govt - Valery Uvarov who claims to have found an ET created defence system in the region against celestial bodies. Even when the museum professor showed Carey a lot of evidence and ended with footage of a UFO over the Tunguska area, he still refused to engage with this idea and preferred to comment on how strange it felt to be being told about this with the local Russian official being present. I found this a problematic approach - Tunguska is a weird, contradictory event and thus all ideas have to be valid for consideration.
A lot more time was spent on the meteor theories and I liked the way it was pointed out that each time scientists found themselves on the way to 'proof' something happened to stop their research dead. The problems others have with Carey focusing more on the weird people in the region than the science - i don't see as a major issue - both for the reason above and because this wasn't billed as a formal science documentary. The people he met mirrored the 1908 event in many ways.
It should be noted there is another theory that Carey didn't locate. It involved the finding of Tibetan scripts by a British explorer [who did exist] and subsequent trip to the remote region with this information by a European group who were said to have set off a nuclear event with the scroll information. This was for a pole-shift. If you want more details read my article in the Exopolitics Journal.
Meteorite Fragment From Russia Found In A Lake - On Science
Meteorites in lakes and meteorites from Mars.
A global view on the health of the oceans.
Picturing the future of coral reefs.
And scientists head to the county fair. That's today...On Science!
Hello and welcome to On Science. I'm your host Emerald Robinson.
A new piece of space rock has been brought to the surface. Divers in Russia recently pulled a 1200 pound piece of the meteorite that exploded over Russia back in February from a lakebed in the Ural Mountains. More than a dozen meteorite fragments have been recovered from the lake so far, with the heaviest up until now being around 25 pounds. A curator at London's Natural History Museum said the presence of fusion crust, which forms as the meteoroid travels through the atmosphere as a fireball, gave away its extraterrestrial origins. Experts say this is one of the top 10 biggest meteorite fragments ever found. That's one space rock you definitely have to be glad landed it water.
Where do these crazy meteorites come from anyway? Space, duh. But more specifically? The Curiosity rover has proven that some of the meteorites discovered here on Earth made their way from our neighbor - The Red Planet. That means their Martian Meteorites right? Based on info from the rover's Sample Analysis at Mars instrument, scientists were able to match the argon isotopic ratio found in some meteorites with that seen on Mars, which is slightly different from the rest of the Solar System. On Mars the ratio of light to heavy argon is skewed because most of the planet's original atmosphere was lost to space, losing much of the lighter form of argon. The match has scientists feeling quite confident, boasting that, this direct reading from Mars settles the case with all Martian meteorites. Well, then I guess case closed.
And meteorites aren't the only foreign materials landing in water. Carbon emissions are swimming around too. A new study is taking a comprehensive look at how carbon emissions and warming temperatures will affect the oceans, and what effect that will have on humans. They studied 32 marine habitats and biodiversity hotspots to determine each location's susceptibility to climate change, and looked at data on human dependence on the ocean for goods and services. From their overall view, they said that - without mitigation - nearly every place in the world's ocean will be affected by 2100 which in turn will affect humans who rely on the ocean for food and work. The ocean will see an increase in acidification, a decrease in oxygen and diversity, and a rise in the overall PH level. They found that coral reefs, sea grass beds, and shallow soft-bottom marine habitats would be the most changed. Researchers said this is one legacy that we as humans should not ignore.
And another group is getting a picture of the future of coral reefs. Literally. A team from Stanford University is using drones to map and measure coral reefs. The drones are equipped with an extra special 360-degree camera that images the reefs beneath the surface of the water. The images are then analyzed by, you guessed it, special software, which boosts image resolution and removes distortions caused by water movements. The team is using the images to try to better understand the effects of climate change on corals and to learn about the conditions that help support coral longevity.
And let's leap on to the next story. If you want to study bullfrogs where do you go? To the county fair of course! Researchers from Brown and Northeastern Universities went to the Calavera County Fair in California to study how far a bullfrog can really leap. The researcher from Brown was frustrated with lab leaping analysis of bullfrogs and decided that the best way to see a bullfrog in action was in a frog-leaping contest. Lab measurements hadn't surpassed 1m, although they had heard of winning bull frogs jumping as much as 3m. They filmed the fair jumps and took them back to the lab for analysis. They found that most bullfrogs jumped an average 1.1 to 1.5 m. But for the professionals who went out to hand select their prize-winning jumpers, their frogs hit closer to the 3m mark. The researchers determined it's all a numbers game; the more frogs there are to choose from, the more likely you are to end up with good jumper. So if you plan to enter a frog-leaping competition at the county fair, be sure to look at a lot of frogs to find your winner.
And that's what's up today On Science. Gonna go catch me a w ...
Meteor crashed in Russia
The profusion of videos of the meteor that crashed in Russia on Friday should help scientists trace its origin. Based on the images, they can calculate its trajectory before reaching the Earth, reconstructing the orbit space rock that ran in the Solar System, which added a further analysis of the fragments found, could prove where it came from and how it was released in direction of our region of space. The reconstruction of the orbit will also allow astronomers to discover if he came to be seen by earlier detection programs near-Earth objects, but ended up going unnoticed. It will not be an easy job, however: the more than 45 000 meteorites (as are now called the pieces of meteors that reach the ground) officially recognized worldwide, until now scientists were only able to retell the story of 18.
- It will be a great thing if we can do that - recognized Philipp Heck, assistant curator of meteorites and studies of polar Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, in an interview with the magazine Popular Science.
According Heck observation are needed from at least three different locations and away in order to calculate the orbit of the meteor before it enters the atmosphere. This, however, should not be difficult to achieve, since the Russian meteor was recorded by cameras and cellphones of dozens and perhaps hundreds of motorists and pedestrians in the city of Chelyabinsk region, where he fell.
Heck, by the way, has already participated in a reenactment of the kind. He was part of a team of scientists who last December published an article telling the story of Sutter's Mill meteorite, which fell in April last year in Northern California. Then a meteor the size of a car and weighing about 50 tonnes entered the Earth's atmosphere at more than 100,000 km / h, exploding in a fireball in the air in a manner similar to that seen in Russia and spreading his pieces on the streets of suburbs of El Dorado County.
According to scientists, the object that caused the meteorite Sutter's Mill came from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, having been thrown in the direction of the sun and flown out near Mercury and Venus before reaching Earth. Although most of the meteorites that fall on Earth originates belt, some are from Mars and very few come from the moon, but if Sutter's Mill researchers were even further by identifying the region exactly this field of space rocks believe was where he came from. This is because the study of fragments showed how long they were exposed to cosmic rays that pass through the Solar System, which allowed them to deduce the time that the meteor was created in collisions between asteroids belt, which is found in relatively recent history System Solar.
- There is a debris field known (in the asteroid belt) that may have been the source (the meteorite) - added Peter Jenniskens, an astronomer at the SETI Institute and lead author of the article about the meteorite Sutter's Mill.

IMPACT! is a planetarium show that immerses you with meteors, meteorites, asteroids, and comets and dramatically demonstrates the potential destruction from a comet impact.
IMPACT! is a planetarium show that teaches about meteors, meteorites, asteroids, and comets. It includes results from recent NASA missions and about the dangers they can pose to life on Earth. It is created for fulldome theaters but is also available on DVD to be shown in flat version for TVs and computer monitors.
It shows dramatically the effects of the Chicxulub and Tungusta events, plus the Pallasite impact that resulted in the Brenham meteorite fall, and describes ways that asteroid hunters seek new objects in the solar system, and how ground penetrating radar is used to find meteorites that have survived to the Earth's surface. Narrated by astronaut Tom Jones, it also discusses ways that humans might try to deflect an asteroid or comet that is on a collision course with Earth.
Millions of asteroids and comets lurk among the planets -- left over bits and pieces from the solar system's formation four and a half billion years ago. Because of them, we live in a dangerous cosmic shooting gallery and impacts still shape the surfaces of the planets and moons. For instance, without warning on Feb. 15, 2013, an asteroid fragment struck Siberia and exploded over a populated area close to the Russian city of Chelyabinsk. Dozens of building- and car-mounted video cameras captured the meteor's descent and the shadows it cast, making it the most documented meteor event in history. There were no deaths, but about 1,500 injuries occurred, mostly cuts from glass that broke due to the force of the shock wave produced when the meteor broke up in the atmosphere. Sound waves from this explosion circled the Earth several times.
Created for informal science venues (digital planetariums), it is also useful as ancillary material for middle school science. Created under NASA Cooperative Agreement NCC5-316 to Rice University in conjunction with the Houston Museum of Natural Science as part of the Immersive Earth project, part of the REASoN program.

Meteorite Found on Mars Yields Clues About Planet's Past08.10.09 This view of a rock called Block Island, the largest meteorite yet found on Mars, comes from the panoramic camera (Pancam) on NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity.
Full image and caption
This iron-nickel meteorite found near Fort Stockton, Texas, in 1952 shows a surface texture similar to some portions of the surface of an iron-nickel meteorite that NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity found on Mars in July 2009.
Full image and caption
NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity used its microscopic imager to get this view of the surface of a rock called Block Island during the 1,963rd Martian day, or sol, of the rover's mission on Mars (Aug. 1, 2009).
Full image and caption PASADENA, Calif. -- NASA's Mars Rover Opportunity is investigating a metallic meteorite the size of a large watermelon that is providing researchers more details about the Red Planet's environmental history.
The rock, dubbed Block Island, is larger than any other known meteorite on Mars. Scientists calculate it is too massive to have hit the ground without disintegrating unless Mars had a much thicker atmosphere than it has now when the rock fell. An atmosphere slows the descent of meteorites. Additional studies also may provide clues about how weathering has affected the rock since it fell.
Two weeks ago, Opportunity had driven approximately 180 meters (600 feet) past the rock in a Mars region called Meridiani Planum. An image the rover had taken a few days earlier and stored was then transmitted back to Earth. The image showed the rock is approximately 60 centimeters (2 feet) in length, half that in height, and has a bluish tint that distinguishes it from other rocks in the area. The rover team decided to have Opportunity backtrack for a closer look, eventually touching Block Island with its robotic arm.
There's no question that it is an iron-nickel meteorite, said Ralf Gellert of the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. Gellert is the lead scientist for the rover's alpha particle X-ray spectrometer, an instrument on the arm used for identifying key elements in an object. We already investigated several spots that showed elemental variations on the surface. This might tell us if and how the metal was altered since it landed on Mars.
The microscopic imager on the arm revealed a distinctive triangular pattern in Block Island's surface texture, matching a pattern common in iron-nickel meteorites found on Earth.
Normally this pattern is exposed when the meteorite is cut, polished and etched with acid, said Tim McCoy, a rover team member from the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. Sometimes it shows up on the surface of meteorites that have been eroded by windblown sand in deserts, and that appears to be what we see with Block Island.
Opportunity found a smaller iron-nickel meteorite, called Heat Shield Rock, in late 2004. At about a half ton or more, Block Island is roughly 10 times as massive as Heat Shield Rock and several times too big to have landed intact without more braking than today's Martian atmosphere could provide.

Defending Earth from Asteroids with Neil deGrasse Tyson
There are about a million near-Earth asteroids that are large enough to substantially damage or destroy a major city, as evidenced by the explosion over Chelyabinsk, Russia, in February 2013 of a meteor no bigger than a large truck, which injured more than 1,000 people.
With current space technology, scientists know how to deflect the majority of hazardous near-Earth objects. But prevention is only possible if nations work together on detection and deflection. Learn about the risks, and the steps that are needed to avoid these potential natural disasters, from a group of astronauts and cosmonauts who recently helped develop recommendations to the United Nations for defending Earth from asteroid impact in this discussion.
This program, which was streamed live on the web, took place at the American Museum of Natural History on October 25, 2013, the same week the United Nations General Assembly adopted measures creating an international decision-making mechanism for planetary asteroid defense. The event was co-hosted by the American Museum of Natural History and the Association of Space Explorers (ASE).
Neil deGrasse Tyson, who is the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium, hosted the discussion with participants Thomas Jones, former NASA astronaut, senior research scientist at the Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition, and Association of Space Explorers (ASE) Near Earth Objects Committee member; Russell Schweickart, former NASA astronaut, ASE co-founder and Near Earth Objects Committee member, and co-founder and chairman emeritus of the B612 Foundation; Dumitru-Dorin Prunariu, former Romanian astronaut, ASE co-founder and Near Earth Objects Committee member, and vice president of the European International Institute for Risk, Security, and Communication Management; Edward Lu, former NASA astronaut, ASE Near Earth Objects Committee member, and co-founder, chairman, and CEO of the B612 Foundation; and Soichi Noguchi, engineer and JAXA astronaut, and ASE Near Earth Objects Committee member.

U-2 Wreckage Displayed In Moscow 1960
View The CIA and the U2 Program in Adobe Acrobat.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On April 28, a U.S. Lockheed U-2C spy plane, Item 358, was ferried from Incirlik Air Base in Turkey to the US base at Peshawar airport by pilot Glen Dunaway. Fuel for the aircraft had been ferried to Peshawar the previous day in a US Air Force C-124 transport. A US Air Force C-130 followed, carrying the ground crew, mission pilot Francis Gary Powers and the back up pilot, Bob Ericson. On the morning of April 29, the crew in Badaber was informed that the mission had been delayed one day. As a result, Bob Ericson flew Item 358 back to Incirlik and John Shinn ferried U-2C Item 360 from Incirlik to Peshawar. On April 30, the mission was delayed one day further because of bad weather over the Soviet Union.
The weather improved and on May 1, fifteen days before the scheduled opening of an EastWest summit conference in Paris, Francis Gary Powers, flying Item 360, left the US base in Peshawar on a mission to overfly the Soviet Union, photographing ICBM sites in and around Sverdlovsk and Plesetsk, then land at Bodø in Norway. All units of the Soviet Air Defence Forces in the Central Asia, Kazakhstan, Siberia, Ural and later in the U.S.S.R. European Region and Extreme North were on red alert, and the U-2 flight was expected. Soon after the plane was detected, Lieutenant General of the Air Force Yevgeniy Savitskiy ordered the air-unit commanders to attack the violator by all alert flights located in the area of foreign plane's course, and to ram if necessary.
Because of the U-2's extreme operating altitude, Soviet attempts to intercept the plane using fighter aircraft failed. The U-2's course was out of range of several of the nearest SAM sites, and one SAM site even failed to engage the aircraft since it was not on duty that day. The U-2 was eventually hit and brought down near Degtyarsk, Ural Region, by the first of three SA-2 Guideline (S-75 Dvina) surface-to-air missiles fired by a battery commanded by Mikhail Voronov. The plane's pilot, Francis Gary Powers, successfully bailed out and parachuted to safety. Powers carried with him a modified silver dollar which contained a lethal, shellfish-derived saxitoxin-tipped needle, but did not use it. In bailing out, he neglected to disconnect his oxygen hose and struggled with it until it broke, enabling him to separate from the aircraft. He was captured soon after parachuting down onto Russian soil.
The SAM command center was unaware that the plane was destroyed for more than 30 minutes. One of the Soviet MiG-19 fighters pursuing Powers, piloted by Sergei Safronov, was also destroyed in the missile salvo. The MiGs' IFF transponders were not yet switched to the new May codes because of the May 1st holiday.
A close study of Powers' account of the flight shows that one of the last targets he had overflown was the Chelyabinsk-65 plutonium production facility. From photographs of the facility, the heat rejection capacity of the reactors' cooling systems could have been estimated, thus allowing a calculation of the power output of the reactors. This then would have allowed the amount of plutonium being produced to be determined, thus allowing analysts to determine how many nuclear weapons the USSR was producing.

T-64
The T-64 is a Soviet main battle tank introduced in the early 1960s. It was a more advanced counterpart to the T-62: the T-64 served tank divisions, while the T-62 supported infantry in motor rifle divisions. Although the T-62 and the famous T-72 would see much wider use and generally more development, it was the T-64 that formed the basis of more modern Soviet tank designs, such as the T-80.
