Durham, 3 December 2022. The first fortress here was around 1072 but little remains from before 1340. Construction of the cathedral started in 1093 and most was completed within forty years, although there have been later additions and alterations. The castle was really a bishop's palace with some fortification, but despite this it was the only northern castle never to fall to the Scots; it is now part of Durham University.
New year, New GEVO. That's how it goes, right?

These were taken last week at Seaburn near Sunderland.The waves were amazing the best some of the locals had ever seen.
Hard to believe it's almost December, and then January, my favorite month for Monterey. I remember taking this shot, one of many while the surf was breaking. Looking forward to getting down there again. (Suggest you look at this full-screen.)
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
In the northern constellation of Coma Berenices (Berenice's Hair) lies the impressive Coma Cluster — a structure of over a thousand galaxies bound together by gravity. Many of these galaxies are elliptical types, as is the brighter of the two galaxies dominating this image: NGC 4860 (center). However, the outskirts of the cluster also host younger spiral galaxies that proudly display their swirling arms. Again, this image shows a wonderful example of such a galaxy in the shape of the beautiful NGC 4858, which can be seen to the left of its bright neighbor and which stands out on account of its unusual, tangled, fiery appearance.
NGC 4858 is special. Rather than being a simple spiral, it is something called a “galaxy aggregate,” which is as the name suggests a central galaxy surrounded by a handful of luminous knots of material that seem to stem from it, extending and tearing away and adding to or altering its overall structure. It is also experiencing an extremely high rate of star formation, possibly triggered by an earlier interaction with another galaxy. As we see it, NGC 4858 is forming stars so frantically that it will use up all of its gas long before it reaches the end of its life. The color of its bright knots indicates that they are formed of hydrogen, which glows in various shades of bright red as it is energized by the many young, hot stars lurking within.
