regarding message from david smith about a meteoroid impact on a shuttle window: i have not yet seen av.week and sp. tech. (megadeath weekly!) article so i assume the impact was fairly large (1mm?). spacecraft windows such as those from skylab/apollo are very useful for recording micro- particle hypervelocity impacts and in some cases they retain material from the incident particles. does anybody know where the window has ended up? ...!vax135!ukc!dgd
