How do you search for meteorite material on the ocean’s floor? For the #SeekingSpaceRocks Team, they have joined the @SchmidtOcean R/V Falkor & used the SuBastian ROV along with a variety of tools to plow, scoop, sift, sieve & stow samples! Samples collected are being evaluated.

The target marker separation on May 30 during PPTD-TM1A was caught at the last moment by the small monitor camera, CAM-H! The image time was May 30, 11:18 JST (on-board time) at an altitude of about 9m. CAM-H was built with donations from all of you & is a big success! Thank you!

The boulders usually get most of the attention, but it's Bennu's craters that give drama for days.

As promised, pics of the Apr 23 carbonaceous chondrite fall in Costa Rica (Aguas Zarcas) kindly on loan to @ASUMeteorites from @Michael54694770: one w red paint crashed through the roof of a doghouse & nearly hit the dog! Last two show beautiful bluish iridescent fusion crust.
