The UA-run Phoenix Mars Lander found evidence that the isotopic composition of atmospheric carbon dioxide is "pointing to an atmosphere rejuvenated by volcanic outpourings, possibly up to the very recent geologic past..." and "the atmosphere may have been chemically interacting with [...]
Sept. 9, 1823 - April 30, 1891 From The Academy of Natural Sciences:Leidy is known as the "Father of American Vertebrate Paleontology". He described the first relatively complete dinosaur skeleton, Hadrosaurus, and introduced many American and European scientists to the fossil riches of [...]
Caves pose specific problems to many forms of life. Caves are dark, and animals must develop their non-optic senses to survive. Many cave organisms have no pigment - what's the point of a pretty color pattern if no one can see it? On the right is a photo of a blind cave fish from the National Park [...]

Breve post che informa gli interessati su alcuni test effettuati con Megamatrice sulla plausibilità di ipotesi "eterodosse". Gli spunti derivano da Ville Sinkkonen e Mickey Mortimer.

El amigo aqui ilustrado es uno de mis marginocéfalos favoritos: Pachyrhinosaurus canadensis. Si, he dicho "marginocéfalo". Este término es quizás poco conocido por el público en general. Todos hemos oído hablar alguna vez de "ceratopsios", los dinosaurios con cuernos y [...]
Day 2 has been filled with safety demos and scientific presentations. I was reminded not to horseplay, how to read an MSDS, and how to wear a "gumby suit" which is a very warm floatable suit that will help me survive if the boat sinks! The lead scientist led us [...]

A new article in the Journal of the Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science by a team of Arizona geologists including AZGS's Brian Gootee, has documented the existence of an "older, higher terrace" that supports the idea that "the lower Salt River originated by lake overflow from an [...]
In Italia è proprio cattiva scienza.Ritorno, molto controvoglia, sull'argomento degli allarmi sismici, quando ci sarebbe da dire cose molto più interessanti. Nel post precedente, pubblicato solo giovedì scorso, al riguardo avevo scritto: Non dico di silenziare o censurare le notizie, ma [...]
