So now I've got slightly more of an idea as to what's going on in the research end of things. I will be making maps of a 5cm x 5cm slab of Allende. Seeing as how these maps are on the micron scale, this will be potentially very tedious work. Howevere there is a piece of software that could make my life on EVO much easier. It is the automated mapping software that has yet to come into existence at AMNH. The little tab is there on the menu and everything, the software just hasn't quite been born yet. There is a big rush to get it here in time while I'm still here... but the best estimate I heard for it's arrival was "about one month". I suppose I should ellaborate... If the mapping is not automated then I will tweaking a stage around all day long refocusing and generating tiny little mapped sections of the meteorite. I will stitch them together later to make one big picture.
Example.
There's not really too much of a reason why I'm doing this aside from it's not been done before and the more information available the merrier. I'll also be counting the calcium-aluminum inclusions inside and identifying
various minerals. Woohoo.
So here's the sweet butterfly storage cabinet that was stumbled upon today.
Life is good and I'm going to go read a book now. Goodnight =)
Chels
various minerals. Woohoo.

I think one of the colors of those butterflies should be the color of your new apt. room.
With red or blue accents, of course...sage green works well too....smile
