1958, 1858. What's a century among friends?

OOOpps!!! Thank you John, I think it is a typo, there is only one Ausson meteorite and it fell on December 9, 1858, just north of the Pyrenees Mountains in southern France. I'll mention that to the Webmaster.

What were the Vegas odds that the same meteorite fell in the same place exactly 100 years apart? Thanks for sharing Anne.
