There is a new episode called "Cosmic Collisions" that will talk about asteroids and meteorites. It's on as I type this...

So far, I haven't seen anything about meteorites. Post Extras:       Glassthrower Vendor - Galactic Stone & Ironworks Reged: 04/07/05 Loc: Oort Cloud 9 Re: Cosmic Collisions on Discovery Chan NOW! [Re: Glassthrower]       #2894772 - 01/29/09 12:16 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Ok, here's the scoop - I just exchanged emails with Geoff Notkin, and he said this Cosmic Collisions series was filmed in 3 episodes. One of these episodes is about meteorites and has extensive footage with Geoff and Steve Arnold at the Brenham site and at Geoff's collection in Tucson. It's not to be missed. Unfortunately, Discovery Channel is airing them out of sequence. So I am not sure which episode of the 3 will be about the meteorites. When Geoff finds out, he is going to let me know and I will pass it along. Tonights episode was about galactic collisions, gamma ray bursts, and non-meteorite subjects.
