Good to hear. Thanks 👍

My first was also a Gibeon, so nice to see the enthusiasm. I like the channel, not enough people talking space rocks out there

Hi Topher, thank you so much for another educational and amazing video. Your irons are great guys maybe I have to think about to collect more of them 😅. The explanation of the oxygen isotopes of the fantastic new Tarda meteorite is really a highlight at the end of the hangout 😃👍👍👍 Only one word: AMAZING Best wishes from Germany ☄️ Marco

Hi Topher, thanks a lot I am happy to hear that 😁 Best wishes Marco

I am catching up on a lot of the older videos I haven’t previously watched…. (Before you finally turned me into a meteorite lover!) I really dig the intro to this one. I know it’s longer than you would use for your current videos, but it’s really cool!

That is awesome! I love this opening too. But, people will click away in 7 seconds if not completely into the video. Welcome to the Meteorite Nerdom.

Another great get together, so glad I can watch these when I can't make it. And, frankly Topher, they are getting better every week! I wanted to comment on the use of neodymium (rare-earth) magnets. TAKE RECOMMENDED PRECAUTIONS for magnets over a certain gauss. I almost crushed a finger with two 1" spherical magnets by not paying attention to what I was doing. Fortunately, I only ended up with a really bad blood-blister on one finger that took a while to heal. PLUS, THEY ARE DANGEROUS TO PACEMAKERS!!! Pat did a great job talking about these on the video, having had quite a bit of experience with these myself, I just wanted to add my two cents. All that said, they are one of the best tools available to find meteorites from fragments to large pieces. Also as Pat said, the nickel coating does not stand up to field use. There are several sources for these magnets and here is one that does offer rubber and plastic coatings. If you go to Page 2 and Page 3, they even have plastic coated ones with counter sunk screw holes, perfect for the end of that meteorite grabbing walking stick. I wanted to share with with the group since I wasn't able to join. Cheers! www.kjmagnetics.com/products.asp?cat=164

In the description to every single video on my channel, I have a link to a Facebook group where you can load quality pictures and get quality feedback. That is the first step before involving any scientists and their expensive time and lab equipment.
