This is the river Rhine in cologne. It's the biggest and longest river in Germany.
The drought shows us structures and things that are usually under the water.

[#ScienceNews on #Mars] The #ChemCam instrument installed on NASA's #Curiosity rover has identified the presence of #manganese in particularly high concentrations within #rocks that dot the floor of the #Gale crater.

This discovery shows that these #sediments were formed in a river, a delta or near the shore of an ancient lake. It raises questions about #oxydation processes on Mars... and reinforces the hypothesis of past #habitability...

I send thanks to the buyer from Utah who purchased an art print of

Valley of Stones -- https://2-steve-henderson.pixels.com/featured/valley-of-stones-steve-henderson.html?product=art-print

It's a rugged place, this high valley in the wilderness of Oregon. May the artwork take you to such a place -- one of wild beauty, intense silence, and timeless majesty.

I was extremely surprised to find that the olive brown bands were oolites (Right).

Here (Left) is an oolitic pebble with a white chert matrix on one end & a translucent matrix on the other for comparison. 3/ #Archaeology #rocks

While I was doing some work on black novaculite & Big Fork chert samples using the big microscope, I decided to examine it closer. 2/ #Archaeology #rocks

Interesting black chert with 2 pale olive brown bands someone gave me years ago. 1/ #Archaeology #rocks

Check out this stereoscopic pair of images captured today by the Curiosity rover. There is so much structure in this bedrock!

Rocas en la arena, detrás el mar de un color azul turquesa adentrándose en la arena y al fondo un bosque.
El mar de un colo turquesa con una pequeña ola rompiendo en la orilla junto a unas pequeñas rocas. Al fondo, en el horizonte, Vigo.
