Gonna go look for meteors

[Tucson Dan]

If you Google "Marana meteor December" you'll see the story of a major meteor that broke up and fell around the Tucson area on December 10, 2013. My friend found a piece in her yard so we're going to take the MDs out for a little hunt. Hopefully we'll find something.

Supposedly they are black charred smooth masses that are obviously metallic. They can be huge or just a pea size.most will be surface finds if they're that small. I'll let you know what I find if anything.

There's a chance of finding them without any equipment too. I'll just keep my pro pointer handy.

If I find any, I'll post pics. Thanks everyone.
