dc.description.abstract The presentations discuss the composition of Martian meteorites. Many of the talks were on a specific meteorite, that is, Allan Hills 84001 (ALH84001). Other papers discuss methods to sterilize martian samples, the existence of water on Mars, the facilities of the Meteorite Processing Laboratory at Johnson Space Center, comparative analyses of geologic processes and the gathering of meteorites. en
