Someone sent me a meteorite a few years ago and claimed it was a fall
with a crater. I had my doubts, so I asked for a photo. He sent
this: http://www.meteoritemarket.com/site2(50).jpg
This was "proof" in his mind. I still had my doubts.
Now I'll call on the list experts to say whether this is a crater or
an impact pit . . .
