Meteorite Men | S01 E05 | The Dry Lake Bad
Steve and Geoff fire up their ATVs and join maverick meteorite hunter Sonny Clary on an unforgettable adventure into the wilds of Nevada's Great Basin. Sonny and his dog Brix lead them to the site of a fantastic space rock discovery, and the Meteorite Men can hardly believe their eyes when they find a area of cracked desert floor that is littered with hundreds of meteorite fragments. Steve and Geoff also visit the Alamo Breccia where, 370 million years ago, a much larger meteorite crashed into a now-vanished shallow sea, leaving us with impact breccias peppered with ancient marine fossils. A close call with Area 51 and an amusing lab visit with Dr. Laurence Garvie at the Center for Meteorite Studies round out this fan-favorite episode.

Sonny Clary is a retired Las Vegas Fire Department chief and expert meteorite hunter. He, Steve, and Geoff, have been friends for many years. Sonny discovered this Nevada site and kept it secret until the Meteorite Men could join him there.
Geoff has studied ancient impacts all over the world and is friends with the discoverer of the Alamo Breccia site, Dr. John Warme. Geoff participated in a U.S. Geological Survey expedition to the site in 2001. The secondary Alamo Breccia segment was added, literally, at the last minute, when snow at the lake bed location temporarily halted filming.
