I just found this site: http://www.passc.net/EarthImpactDatabase/index.html
It has no mention of impacts in Polk county, TN. hmmm.

My Dad's friend said there was one in the ground as big as car. So my Dad said, "translate that to the size of a garbage can." 
Either way, it would be super cool to find it and document it. Yeah! New semi-local adventures!

Thanks Joe. I think that is what got me started on this. I think those "local" places are in NC. I will re-read anyway.

I want to investigate a couple of "sightings" reported to me in TN. One guy swears he saw one go over his house, very near and is convinced it hit somewhere. Another person told me he knows where one is in the ground south of here.

I just want to hunt and it seems there isn't much to hunt in E Tn in the way of minerals. I haven't really thought they were beautiful, but they are definitely interesting. I am hoping to find some of the "stony" ones that might contain..you guessed it...crystallization! They might have olivine or be tektites. Or it would just be cool to have something that was galactic...that would be super funky! 

I need to find another database of impact sites, strewn fields, etc.
