Meteorite Men - Episode Guide

There is amazing footage of the night time fireball of the Buzzard Coulee Meteorite that fell in Canada, last November. The fall occurred just before a blanket of Winter snow, so the meteorites are well preserved for Geoff and Steve to unearth.

Approximately 63,000 years ago a giant meteorite created one of only two craters in the U.S. that have produced meteorite specimens. Steve and Geoff will be hunting on the land surrounding the crater with their new cutting edge detectors.

In the 1850's a Mexican farmer came across a huge meteorite in Arizona. It became known as the "Tucson Ring" and now resides at the Smithsonian. This is a hunt that will attempt to solve one of the biggest mysteries in the world of meteorite hunters.

In 1995, Professor Jim Kriegh discovered a field of thousands of ancient (fossil) stone meteorites, while prospecting for gold. Dr. Kriegh discovered the Gold Basin Meteorite - known as the best mapped strewn field in history.

Dry lake beds are a great place to find new, never before discovered meteorites. The terrain of the bed provides spectacular visuals and high-speed action as the guys cover as much ground as possible, looking for dark rocks against the light colored sand.

Ash Creek is the site of the most recent recorded meteorite fall in United States (February, 15, 2009) with a daytime fireball recorded on camera. Following clues from the locals, Steve and Geoff will seek to recover the mysterious rocks from this fall.

Geoff and Steve return to their top-secret location in eastern Kansas where a rare pallasite meteorite contains extraordinary gem-quality olivine crystals.

Thirteen years ago, the Imilac strewnfield was the first place Geoff and Steve hunted together. With over 900 kilograms of meteorites found, Imilac is the third largest pallasite recovered, and one of the only regions littered with space rocks.

This 1,509ft in diameter crater is one of the best-preserved meteorite craters on the planet. Measuring 34m deep, the Monturaqui Crater is often compared to the Bonneville Crater on Mars.

Using Doppler radar and eyewitness testimony, the Meteorite Men track a strewnfield down to Dugway Military Base. Military officials grant Geoff and Steve exclusive access to the dangerous ammunition testing grounds to search for peices of the fall.

On April 14, 2010, a fireball lit up the night sky. The sonic boom was heard for miles. As perhaps, the most publicized meteorite fall in history, swarms of meteorite hunters flooded the scene in hopes of securing a piece of this famed fireball.

With a terrestrial age estimated at over 800,000 years old, the Muonionalusta meteorites have endured thousands of years worth of glaciations and melting periods.

The Mundrabilla iron meteorites are known for their zoomorphic shapes. 700,000 years ago the massive meteoroid showered along a strewnfield of over 80km long. The largest masses were recovered in 1966 and tipped the scales at 16 tons and 6 tons.

The Henbury Meteorite Craters consist of twelve craters that stretch across central Australia's outback. This engraved record of an ancient meteorite shower 4,700 years ago was the inspiration for Aboriginal folklore and a shadow of dark superstition.

5,000 years ago an enormous meteorite cascaded over Poland, scarring the landscape with seven massive craters. For the first time, Geoff and Steve receive exclusive access to investigate the magnificent Morasko crater field.

Geoff and Steve make their epic return to northern Sweden to try and claim another victory north of the Arctic Circle. In the land of the midnight sun they must endure swarms of mosquitoes and swampy terrain to recover a famed Muonionalusta iron.

The Meteorite Men are summoned back to Canada in a race to survey the Whitecourt Crater site and collect its extraterrestrial wonders before their scientific information is poached by illegal meteorite hunters and lost forever.

The Kremlin, St. Basil's Cathedral, Red Square, and of course, vodka, for the first time, Geoff and Steve make the journey to Russia in search of one of the most rare and valuable meteorites on the planet, the Dronino ataxite.

Geoff and Steve venture to one of the country's meteorite capitals, the Mojave Desert. As the guys hunt for extraterrestrial gold in two Mojave locations they examine the mystery behind meteorite hot spots.

A hot tip sends the guys to southern Arizona in order to investigate a possible cold find. But hunting for an unknown and unclassified meteorite poses new challenges for the duo, so they recruit the help of Dr. Garvie from ASU.

In 1875 the famed "detonating space rock" exploded six times over Iowa. Forgotten for almost 150 years, the Meteorite Men setout to uncover the extraterrestrial treasure buried beneath the cornfields of Homestead, Iowa.

The guys travel to eastern Poland in hopes of securing a piece of one of the most famous meteorite falls in history. In 1868 the quiet town of Pultusk was showered by a storm of space rocks in one of the largest stony meteorite falls ever recorded.

Meteorites are remnants of long-dead planets and asteroids. Steve Arnold and Geoff Notkin love nothing more than to hunt them down! Our passionate treasure-hunters take us on an adventure as we learn what meteorites tell us about our past and where we are
