Micheal Boschat and Rascals:

    I just received the latest copy of MAPS, Meteoritics & Planetary Science, Vol 49, Number 10, 2014 October that contains a very interesting paper on the history of "explosion cratering" The Title is:

Ernst Julius Opik's (1916) note on the theory of explosion cratering on the Moon's surface - The complex case of a long-overlooked benchmark paper by RACKI, KOEBERL, VIIK, JAGT-YAZYKOVA and JAGT. 

This Opik paper published in Russian was long over looked.  Anyone interested in the history in the field of meteorite explosion cratering should find this paper most interesting.  If your not a member of the Meteoritical Society perhaps a good library will have a copy.
