METEORITE
HUNTERS
World famous meteorite hunters Steve Arnold and Geoffrey Notkin
have scoured the planet for meteorites. And found hundreds of them,
from the harsh deserts of Chile, all the way to the streets of Chicago.
They have almost thirty years of combined meteorite hunting experience,
and they want to share it with you. Meteorites are extremely rare! If
you want to find one of your own, your best chance is to go with the
experts.
Steve stunned the international scientific community in
the fall of 2005 when he discovered a 1,430-lb pallasite meteorite,
buried seven feet below the rolling fields of Breham, Kansas. He was
featured on CNN, CBS, the NBC Today show, ABC, The Discovery
Channel and hundreds of other news outlets around the world. His 3/4-ton
meteorite is the largest pallasite ever found in the United States and
one of the largest found in history. Geoff Notkin joined him in the
hunt, and together they recovered several more large meteorites. One
of those excavations was filmed specially for the Travel Channel.
Science writer Geoffrey Notkin has published more than
fifty articles on meteorites, meteorite hunting, paleontology, travel,
technology, and the arts. His photographs have appeared in Readers
Digest, Wired, Rock & Gem, Lapidary Journal, Meteorite, Geotimes
and in many other national and international publications. He has made
numerous TV and radio appearances and is currently working on a book
about his life as a meteorite hunter.
Steve and Geoff co-star with well-known TV personality
Becky Worley in the meteorite hunters episode of The
Best Places to Find Cash & Treasures, which premiered on
December 19, 2006. They will make their PBS debut in January, 2007 in
the new series Wired Science.

THE
HUNT
Arnold-Notkin Expeditions exists so collectors and enthusiasts can experience
the joy and excitement of finding a meteorite of their own. During 2007,
meteorite hunters Steve Arnold and Geoff Notkin will lead a few small
teams of bold adventurers on actual expeditions to meteorite strewnfields.
Expedition members will be guided to secret locations where your team
leaders have found meteorites in the past. Your expert guides will share
their decades of experience with you. You will be instructed in metal
detector and GPS operations, meteorite hunting techniques and strategies,
strewnfield mapping, and entertained with campfire stories, cookouts
and local delicacies.
It will be a fun and exciting adventure you'll always
remember, and you may well come home with a meteorite that you
found!
