2021 Fall Date Project

The MPOD Caretakers want to present meteorite falls on their fall dates. For example, Sikhote Aline on 12 February.

This Project will not dip into the MPOD archives so the Caretakers will appreciate anything you can contribute.

To reserve a date just let us know. Thank you in advance :)

A photo of part of our collection of oriented meteorites, from very small to larger. Stained glass lamp made from 'Strand" Glass, collected on our visit to Fuerta Ventura (Canary Islands).

Enjoy.
