Wow!

Do you know of anyone trying this and actually finding micrometeorites?

Nope. I have never tried this, but it just sounds like a fun thing to try some time. It's been a while since I have cleaned my rain gutters....so maybe I will mix a little fun in with a tiresome chore. ;-)

I don't know who figured this little process out, but it does make sense. What a thrill it would be to actually find some little particles that are rounded and pitted!

WhiteWhale and sleaveless in seattle - You two just amaze me with your vast wealth of knowledge. I am in awe of you both!

I know this has been done in Antarctica. I have thought of doing this for many years. Maybe this winter, January, when the air is perfectly still for a month would be a good time. Possibly there would be less airborne dust from glacial scouring.
