Hi all,

I just thought I would remind everyone that today is actually the 50th
Anniversary of one of the most well known meteorite falls... Gao-Guenie.
This meteorite was probably among the first of the individuals to grace many
of our collections. I know it was the first fall and individual represented
in mine.
