The huge irony here is that we the planet earth humans are spending $$BILLIONS$$ to brobe planet Mars and to collect Mars rocks back to planet earth, all that went Mars will drop their rock right here on our planet FOC. Damn it? :eek::*::D

Mars attacks! Morocco pelted with rocks from the Red Planet


Ochre space bonanza worth ten times its weight in gold

Excited boffins have confirmed that a meteorite shower over Morocco last July dumped about 7kg of Martian rocks on our planet.
The find is only the fifth time that scientists have been able to tell that a witnessed meteor shower contained samples from the Red Planet.

It's quite handy for Martian meteors to land on Earth since no spacecraft has yet been able to get to the ochre world and bring specimens back. Aside from the scientific benefits, the rarity of the samples also means they're worth quite a lot of money, more than ten times as much as gold.

The bulletin from the International Society for Meteoritics and Planetary Science, naming the meteor Tissint, said that the rocks came down on July 18 last year.
"A bright fireball was observed by several people in the region of the Oued Drâa valley, east of Tata, Morocco," the investigating scientists said. "One eyewitness, Mr Aznid Lhou, reported that it was at first yellow in colour, and then turned green illuminating all the area before it appeared to split into two parts. Two sonic booms were heard over the valley. In October 2011, nomads began to find very fresh, fusion-crusted stones in a remote area of the Oued Drâa intermittent watershed."
The boffins conducted chemical tests to prove the stones were Martian in origin. Astronomers believe that something big smashed into Mars millions of years ago, sending debris spinning out into the solar system that occasionally ends up here on Earth.
"It's Christmas in January," former NASA sciences chief and director of the Florida Space Institute Alan Stern told newswire The Associated Press. "It's nice to have Mars sending samples to Earth, particularly when our pockets are too empty to go get them ourselves."
Four universities have managed to get their hands on some of the materials, but the remainder is in the hands of traders and collectors, including dealer Darryl Pitt. His website shows the Tata meteorites on sale at between $375 and $650 a gram, while today's gold price is hovering around $53 a gram.
Boffins who get a hold of the samples hope the rocks haven't been too contaminated by their six month stay on Earth to provide further information on the composition of Mars. Those who are hugely optimistic might be harbouring hopes that the rocks could give some indications of whether or not the Red Planet could sustain life, although that's quite unlikely.
The kind of rock that could hold water or life is soft and unlikely to survive falling through Earth's atmosphere, Steve Squyres, principal investigator for NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Programme, told AP. ®

Is that harmful to earth.. ?

Even harmful that 7kg is too little to be of any big impact.

However universe is that huge and possibilities are quite unlimited. Planet earth is just a very tiny object in space, and too many big boys are out there of huge mass and energies (speed, heat, radiation). We can get even sucked into any of them alike meteoroids striking earth, when as a black hole moves near enough to us, and our relative size and weight is totally nothing compared with them.

[h=1]Earth under threat from rogue black holes[/h] Thursday, 10 January 2008

Rogue holes: An illustration depicting the gravity waves predicted to form when black holes approach one another. Experts predict that when two black holes of unequal sizes come into close contact in globular clusters, they create asymmetrical gravity waves that can eject them in different directions at extremely high speeds.

NEW YORK: Hundreds of undetected black holes, each with a mass thousands of times greater than the Sun, might be stealthily roving our galaxy, ready to devour anything that crosses their paths.
These 'rogue' black holes would be very difficult to spot, said Kelly Holley-Bockelmann, an astronomer at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, USA.
"Unless it's swallowing a lot of gas, about the only way to detect the approach of such a black hole would be to observe the way in which its super-strength gravitational field bends the light that passes nearby," she added.
Middling mass
Holley-Bockelmann presented the results of her team's supercomputer simulation on Wednesday at the annual meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Texas.
The model predicted the behaviour of a hypothetical class of so-called intermediate-mass black holes, whose origins are still mysterious. These black hole 'middleweights' are thought to have masses mid-way between that of the two classes of most well-known black holes.
Stellar black holes typically have less than 100 solar masses and are produced when ancient, giant stars explode. At the other end of the scale are supermassive black holes with masses equal to millions or even billions of Suns, and which lie nestled at the hearts of many galaxies.
Intermediate-mass black holes are predicted to form in 'packed globular clusters', large huddles of old stars located in the outer regions of galaxies. The computer simulation predicts that when intermediate black holes merge with the stellar variety, they get gravitationally ejected from their clusters at velocities of up to 4,000 kilometers per second.
Gravitational grip
There are roughly 200 globular clusters in the outer halo of the Milky Way. The model predicts that only five to 30 of these clusters are massive enough to retain a gravitational grip on intermediate black holes formed inside them.
The rest would get ejected from their birthplaces, fated to wander through space, and ready to engulf any stars or planets that get in their way. The chances of Earth falling prey to one of these marauding stellar predators is slim, however.
"These rogue black holes are extremely unlikely to do any damage to us in the lifetime of the universe," said Holley-Bockelmann. "Their danger zone ... is really tiny, only a few hundred kilometres. There are far more dangerous things in our neighbourhood."

[h=1]Scientists confirm Martian meteorite landed in Morocco[/h]

Scientists are confirming a recent and rare invasion from Mars - meteorite chunks that fell from the red planet over Morocco in July.



RARE and expensive fragments of a Mars meteorite fell from the sky in July over Morocco, a team of international scientists has confirmed.

A fireball in the sky was observed in a remote region of southern Morocco by nomads who tracked down fragments of the 7kg meteorite, marking only the fifth time in history that a Mars rock has been seen falling to Earth.
A team of eight experts with the Meteoritical Society analysed the pieces and determined that they are authentic chunks of the red planet, said Carl Agee, part of the team and curator at the University of New Mexico.
"This discovery is tremendously important because of the quality of the sample," Agee said.
The Moroccans who found the fragments quickly sold them to dealers, and museums scrambled to purchase them at a range of $500 to $,000 dollars per gram, said Agee, whose museum now possesses a 108g piece.








The price for meteorites ranges from 10 to 20 times the price of gold.
"Some of these meteorites have atmospheric gas trapped inside glassy material. When they are heated and released in the laboratory and measured it's identical to the Mars atmosphere that all the Mars probes have measured," said Agee.
"All planets, like Venus, Mars and Earth, they have very different atmospheres," he added. "It's like a fingerprint."
The meteorite was named Tissint, and its discovery was documented in the Meteoritical Society's latest bulletin issued January 17.
"At about 2am local time on July 18, 2011, a bright fireball was observed by several people in the region of the Oued Draa valley, east of Tata, Morocco," it said.
"One eyewitness, Mr Aznid Lhou, reported that it was at first yellow in colour, and then turned green illuminating all the area before it appeared to split into two parts. Two sonic booms were heard over the valley."
By October, "nomads began to find very fresh, fusion-crusted stones in a remote area" about 50km east-southeast of Tata.
Agee said such Mars meteorite events only happen about once every 50 years, with the last such event in 1962 in Nigeria. Of about 100 Mars meteorites currently in Earth collections, only five have been seen to fall.
The first known meteorite from Mars was found in France in 1815, a specimen called Chassigny that Agee described as "probably one of the most expensive meteorites in the world."
Pieces of Mars are believed to have broken loose at some time in history when a massive meteor crashed into the surface of the red planet, sending chunks hurtling through space.
Some of the debris has moved fast enough to escape the gravitational pull of Mars and eventually fall to Earth.
Agee said scientists will examine the Moroccan meteorite for radioactive signatures left by cosmic rays, signalling how long its journey has been, possibly thousands or millions of years.

It is a damn cruel joke that planet earth's men spent billions of dollars to go and collect some sample rocks from Mars, and recently a Mar bound rocket just ended up back in Pacific Ocean. Meanwhile Mars rocks rained down on planet earth out of nowhere. Is heaven telling us not to try foolish stunts and keep our hands off planet Mars?:eek::rolleyes::*::p

地球人砸大钱搞太空计划要飞到火星去【捡火星石头】。火星人也许就把他们的【火星石头】扔过来地球,暗示地球人不要再去打扰他们的星球了。因为地球人已经彻底破坏了地球,自己生存都没有地方啦。现在企图移民去火星当FT,所以火星人啊真是怕怕,而且【伤不起】。地球人这种破坏力强大的宇宙【瘟神】如果移民去火星当FT,他们可能发动星球大战死命抵抗。:D:D
