  My Word! That is almost 25 miles high. There were some graduate students at
  CalTech who were collecting dust from collectors on the roof of a high
  building. They were interested in about the same thing as Jayson and were
  able to identify some of the particles as meteoritic in origin. I am sorry
  that I cannot remember the name of the professor that gave the talk I
  attended. One of there collectors was a child's plastic pool. The
  experiment was terminated when a janitor mistook their pool for trash and
  threw it away.
