> Jon Larsen, a Norwegian jazz musician and creator of Project Stardust, was able to show that it is possible to find micrometeorites in more populated areas. In a study published in January 2017 in the journal Geology, he and his colleagues catalogued more than 500 lustrous micrometeorites (and counting), all recovered from rooftops in urban areas.

He was featured in Werner Herzogs 2020 film, Fireball: Visitors from Darker Worlds.

Sort of - YouTube started out as a Hot or Not with video.

Great resource. I'm about to use Sass again after a hiatus of ~3yrs. Reading through this has been a great refresher on core principles and best practices.
