Meteorite Hunting Expeditions:
My work life is dedicated to traveling every corner of the planet to recover new meteorite specimens. Sometimes these expeditions are to new fall or find locations, and these projects can last for weeks or months at a time. But when something new falls -- no matter where -- I'm on the next plane out of Arizona! Many more expedition stories will soon be added to this page, and I hope you enjoy reading the adventures.
