Chasing the Eagletail Wilderness Meteorite Fall Part 3: Lost in the Desert
This was the last day of a three-day trip, chasing a small fireball in Arizona, in April 2024.
Three days was too little time to reasonably expect to find anything, but we had good data, needed to check it out.
Thanks again to Peter Jenniskens, Denis Vida, and Hadrien Devillepoix for their work on this event.
I think there's a good chance that someone will find stones from this event, given enough time in the field. I just don't have weeks to dedicate to this one.
If you try to chase this fall, be safe, let your friends and family know where you're going, and make sure they know when you plan to return or check in. And make sure to take more than enough water.

Chasing a Meteorite Fall, Part 2: Fun Desert Finds

This was the second day of a three-day trip, chasing a small fireball in Arizona, in April 2024. Three days was too little time to reasonably expect to find anything, but we had good data, needed to check it out. I'm sorry it took so long for this next video to go up. Life's been busy, and this video got a little complicated. As I said in the video, I did find some great original images of the ...

Finding the Historic Holbrook, Arizona Meteorite Fall of 1912
มุมมอง 1.6K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
Join us as we hunt for meteorites that fell on July 19, 1912. Around 14,000 stones were found shortly after the fall, most weighing just ~a gram or less. Today, they are affectionately called "Holbrook peas." We're not sure of the extent of the strewn field. Reports from the time of the fall are conflicting, with some saying that small and large stones were found mixed together, and others sayi...

Join us for the third and final part of our trip looking for meteorites! Part one was made as part of a UCLA EPSS booth for Exploring Your Universe, an outreach event that went online for two years due to Covid 19. EYU is back to being in-person again so this is just for fun. All of the meteorites found on this day appear to be ordinary chondrites. Krista's first find appears to be a type 3 or ...
Moving ice transporting rocks onto the shore of a dry lake bed in California
มุมมอง 161ปีที่แล้ว
This video shows a few processes: 1) Rain fell on a seasonally wet/dry lakebed. 2) Water pooled in a topographically low part of the lakebed. 3) The surface of the water froze overnight. 4) In the morning, the ice began to melt and a slight breeze kicked up. 5) The wind pushed the ice. A few rocks moved along with it. With a harder freeze, the ice would have been thicker, and could have moved m...
