Did you watch Meteorite Men last week? If not, you can probably catch a repeat. It is a new series, airing 9pm ET/PT Wednesday nights, on the Science Channel about two guys who search for meteorites. Check your local listings for times. (Photo cheekily snapped from their site. Copyright aerolite meteorites.)
I learned about it from Bob Melisso, my producer/filmmaker friend (and occasional collaborator: see here, here and here) who made the pilot and is the supervising producer for the series. From the website:
Modern day treasure hunters Steve Arnold and Geoff Notkin have traveled the world for years to search as a team for remnants of ancient meteorites. In the new Meteorite Men series on Science Channel they visit secret locations and use cutting-edge technology to search for elusive and valuable rocks from space.
It sounds like fun! There’s a lot more here, and there are some photos from the filming here.
Enjoy!
