OK, catching up on writing now. A few weeks ago during that Arizona trip, Michael Bakich and I had the opportunity to fly over Meteor Crater with Brian May, who was on a short holiday from playing Las Vegas with Queen. We circled the crater from the air, took numerous pictures and video, and then had a remarkable visit to the crater on the ground. We discussed the crater’s history and geology at length with David Kring, one of the world’s leading experts on the crater, and were hosted by a group led by Dwayne Virgint, the organization’s CEO.
What a wonderful time it was. We also shot a short film I’ll share with you soon about the hazards of asteroids and Astroid Day.
More to come soon . . . !!
