Now, reports Sandi Doughton at The Seattle Times, researchers are trying to recover bits of the meteorite, and if successful, it will be the first time a chunk of space rock has been retrieved from the ocean floor. www.google.com www.wikipedia.org www.yahoo.com www.youtube.com The search effort is the brainchild of Marc Fries, NASA curator of cosmic dust, who has set up many meteorite hunts in the past. Even though very few people witnessed the fall of the meteorite, Fries was able to pinpoint its trajectory using weather radar. Based on the signals it produced, he estimates the rock was the size of a golf cart before it broke into chunks—including one ten-pounder the size of a brick—and spread over a .38-...
