IAA Public Lecture, 25th September. Dr Mike Simms (UM): "1969; a special year for space rocks (and not just from the Moon)"
Submitted by iaaadmin on Tue, 2019-08-27 12:09Mike is one of Ireland's leading meteorite experts, and has given us many fascinating lectures before. This one focuses on 3 very significant meteorite falls which, coincidentally, occurred in the same year as the first retrieved rocks from the Moon. One of those was the famous Bovedy Meteorite, that last one known to fall in N. Ireland. A fascinating talk is to be expected, delivered in Mike's inimitable style.
