# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Meteorite Hunting in Antarctica
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 20 Oct, 2026 at 06:30 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Join us for our October Science on Tap presentation, Meteorite Hunting in Antarctica with geologist Steve Ballou!

Follow along on a trip to Antarctica, where you will find yourself engaged in the rarest of activities.....Hunting for Meteorites. Think of Elmer Fudd hunting wabbits. Imagine sleeping, cooking and living in a yellow tent on top of a mile of ice. Antarctica is the world's premier meteorite collection area. Half the fun is getting there, and the fun continues as you manage life on the ice. ANSMET collects meteorites for planetary and cosmic research, looking into the origins of our solar system and is a gateway to the galaxy and beyond.

Steve is a geologist and geologists love adventure and meteorites..........so naturally he worked to become involved with ANSMET, the Antarctic Search for Meteorites. Some of Steve's recounting of these adventures can be found here: https://caslabs.case.edu/ansmet/2013/12/19/live-from-the-field/

Science on Tap happens every third Tuesday of the month at the Alley Restaurant in Ashland. There's a 30-45 minute presentation from a speaker followed by an audience Q&A. We recommend arriving early to secure your beverage/food and a seat.
