 Mr-Meteorite (Ruben Garcia) On NOVA Science NOW!

I had a great time "Hunting meteorites with NOVA ScienceNOW and Neil Degrasse Tyson."                   This episode will air February 16, 2011. 

 The NOVA ScienceNOW episode entitled “Where Did We Come From? “will air on Wednesday, February 16, 2011.  Laurence Garvie, Steve Desch and Ruben Garcia will appear with Neil Degrasse Tyson. The episode will begin with Ruben Garcia (Me) leading the hunt for cosmic visitors. Then the cameras will follow Dr. Garvie into his laboratory for classification and lastly Steve Desch will explain the importance of Iron 60 - found in meteorites.

    

It was a cold, windy, and rainy day which made filming difficult- it was still fun though.

Sorry to say that there is no truth to the cover story. We didn't really find a rare ataxite worth $270,000 (this time...)but it sure looks good! It's all made up especially for the movie.
 

I'm also credited as the "Meteorite Consultant" for the movie!
