Of the 13 martian meteorites reported, almost half were collected in Antarctica. With the increased interest in martian meteorite studies accompanying the report of possible biogenic activity in ALH 84001, many have wondered whether recoveries of Antarctic martian meteorites could be enhanced or accelerated. Given that the recovery of Antarctic meteorites is a planned activity, (unlike the recovery of non-Antarctic martian meteorites via random finds and falls), such questions are worth considering. Listed below are several topical questions, followed by answers based on experience gathered during the 21 completed field seasons of ANSMET (the Antarctic Search for Meteorites program).
