“Oigo a las calles respirar,
El eco del humo no se va.
Vivimos esperando, que pase algo ya.

Hasta las sombras quieren escapar, la foto ha salido mal.
Una pregunta escrita en la pared
¿Quién nos va a salvar?.

Es la cadencia, de la decadencia
Es la cadencia. Autocomplacencia.
Es la cadencia, de la decadencia
Es la cadencia. ¿quién nos va a salvar?“

¿Quién nos va a salvar?

the moray eel is a fierce predatory fish with a vicious reputation, and so it "makes sense" that it has those strange and terrfiying pharyngeal jaws.

Mola mola, on the other hand, has the reputation of being bizarre, and silly, swiming on its side to imitate a manta. And yet, it also has pharyngeal jaws.

An excavation in central London has revealed what experts think is a Roman flatpack bed for use in the afterlife.

Of course, this is not the first map of Mars.
E.g., here are topographic images of the 2 hemispheres of Mars, created from data by the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) instrument on NASA's Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) spacecraft.

This image appeared on the cover of Science magazine in May 1999.

MGS operated in Mars orbit from Sept 1997 to Nov 2006. The MOLA instrument transmitted altimetry data until June 2001.

As lots more people arrive today it seems like a good time to chat about a project that I'm privileged to be part of.

I'm delighted to be co-supervising a new collaborative doctoral partnership with colleagues from #QMUL and #MOLA.

Tom Chivers, author of #LondonClay, will be exploring the relationship between people, #history, landscape and environment through the lens of #mudlarking on the Thames!

Photograph of the Thames at low tide. A figure crouches on the rock-strewn foreshore, searching for lost treasures. In the background a bridge straddles the river in front of the London skyline.
