Gregory-

Well, I am not sure as something might have gotten lost in the =
translation but I think he is telling me that a giant asteroid has hit =
the HST (humm, maybe that's why NASA wants to scrape it), causing parts =
of the telescope to crash to earth and the "asteroid" itself is part =
martain/lunar/pallasite/eucrite/tektite which was found in the Alan =
Hills region.

Yea, that's it.
(MIR has already de-orbited, right?)

Obviously a polymict breccia...

with xenolithlic clasts...

(badda bing).
