Multiple levels (parallel planes; rock surface curves down to right) of slickensided fault surfaces in an outcrop of Marron Fm. andesitic volcanic rock (in south-central British Columbia), with one of my fingers for scale. Above my finger, the lighter coloured material is a mineral vein (fluid flowed along a fault plane and mineral precipitated from solution) with a patchy distribution now because it is partly eroded away.
The slickenlines present have two different groove lineation directions, diagonal down to the left and down to the right in both the purplish-brown host rock and the light brown vein material. They record two different steep (sub-vertical) directions of fault motion at this site back in the Eocene (ca. 50 million years ago), a time of post-orogenic normal faulting in this part of western Canada.

Searching my Google Maps right before the Lousiana Border we found the.INFINITY Science Center that actually was on One side of the Highway and the Other Side is where the John C. Stennis Space Center was by appointment only and that was where the actual launch the Rockets. What we were in for was a brush-up of our space program and a real Rocket Scientist’s explanation of how a rocket works, which filled any remaining empty brain cells I had with a new understanding of the complexity of rocket engines, and the realization I won’t be building one soon. Our visit was on a Monday and the crowds were sparse till later in the afternoon

have read that air traffic has not only returned to pre-Corona/Covid levels, but has exceeded it ! - hoped this would not happen ...
China is building 20 new airports and the Indians are buying airplanes without end ... but the Americans are world champions and the greatest in wasting energy and with Trump they will certainly be greater than ever ...
new findings show that Europe is warming more than the rest of the world ... by the end of the century temperatures could be around 50°C (122.0 °F) in summer ...
we love perpetual economic growth and others are also entitled to our prosperity ... or not ? ...
habe gelesen dass der Flugverkehr den Level von vor Corona/Covid micht nur wieder erreicht hat, sondern ihn übertrifft - hatte gehofft, dies würde nicht geschehen ...
neue Erkenntnisse zeigen, dass sich Europa stärker erwärmt, als der Rest der Welt ... am Ende des Jahrhunderts können Temperature um die 50°C im Sommer enstehen ... aber vielleicht werden dass die Kipppunkte vorher verhindern ...
wir lieben das ewige Wirtschaftswachstum und andere haben auch ein Anrecht auf unseren Wohlstand ... oder ...
China baut an 20 neuen Flughäfen und die Inder kaufen Flugzeuge ohne Ende ...

The name NEMO has been used throughout history by many famous authors to describe events and people who find themselves on the border between fantasy and reality. In Latin nemo means ‘no one’ and indicates a world between fantasy and reality. Visitors to NEMO science centre can become a scientist, technologist or technician for a day. Suddenly dreams are real.

The Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science (PPFMOS, formerly known as the Miami Science Museum) is a science museum, planetarium, and aquarium located in Miami, Florida, US. Originally located in Coconut Grove, the museum relocated to Museum Park in the downtown area adjacent to the Perez Art Museum Miami in 2017.
In March 2011, Miami native Phillip Frost and his wife, Patricia, donated $35 million to the construction of a new science museum in Downtown Miami. The museum was designed by London-based Grimshaw Architects, and Miami’s Rodriguez & Quiroga Architects Chartered played an executive role.
The new 250,000 sq ft (23,000 m2) Philip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science (PPFMOS) opened on May 8, 2017 in Museum Park in downtown Miami. The new museum includes: the Frost Planetarium, a 250-seat full-dome screen with a diameter of 67 feet (20 m) and a 16-million-color, 8K projection system; a three-story, cone-shaped, 500,000-US-gallon (1,900,000 L) aquarium with a 31-foot (9.4 m) diameter oculus lens at the bottom for viewing the fish and sharks; and the Knight Learning Center with four classrooms.
