We build this database compressive and hope,useful..

(New Add don't means new finds)
Collect about 26.000 meteorits in 127 Countries
contain brief description each ones,there are:
1-Name
2- Type(stone,iron ect)
2- Coordinates:
3- Where They Find or Fall:
4- Date:When Recovered
5- Recovered Weight:
6- Group
7- Petrologic type: example:Hexahedrite -Pallasite, Ataxite,ect)
8- Shock stage
9- Weathering grade

We planning to update as soon possible if meteorit fell or find ANYWHERE on earth
Data from:127 Countries Around the World
Note:
----1-Don't including those that no show coords 'til confirmate and.....
----2-No duplicate .with others GE members placemarks.
Meteorite Types
Iron primarily iron and nickel;
similar to type M asteroids

Stony Iron mixtures of iron and stony material like type S asteroids
Chondrite by far the largest number of meteorites fall into this class;
similar in composition to the mantles and crusts of the terrestrial planets
Carbonaceous Chondrite very similar in composition to the Sun less volatiles;
similar to type C asteroids
Achondrite similar to terrestrial basalts;
the meteorites believed to have originated on the Moon and Mars are achondrites .

WAUU - a lot of work there! Very cool.:)

A question: Is there a way to sort the locations so that playing the tour will jump to the closest location rather than spinning the globe? I would expect the image loading to be completed quicker between each jump as more cached image information potentially will be available when the focus is only moved a little??

That's a great idea and a great post Majoska. Here's a bit of trivia which concerns a rather amazing coincidence about two meteorites which fell in Wethersfield, CT, USA. In April 8, 1971, the meteorite in your database fell on a house and crashed through the roof. 11 1/2 years later, November 8, 1982, a meteorite crashed through the roof of another house in Wethersfield CT. After passing through the roof and into the living room, it bounced into the dining room, and landed under a table.

The one which fell in Sylacauga, Alabama, is the only known case of a meteorite hitting a person in the US. Ann Hodges of Sylacauga was slightly injured when the meteorite crashed through the roof of her home and hit her in the hip, bruising her.
The story.
