The Danube is Austria's principal river and the longest in Europe after the Volga. Although barely more than 300km/185mi of the river's total course of some 2,900km/1,800miles - from its source in South Germany to its outflow into the Black Sea in Romania - lie within Austria, the names of Austria and the Danube are so closely linked that it is difficult to think of the one without the other. As the only major European waterway flowing from west to east, the Danube has for thousands of years played an important part in the history of the many peoples through whose territory it flowed. It marked out the route of the great military highway which ran from the Rhine to the Black Sea; the Romans built a series of fortified camps such as Vindobona and Carnuntum along the valley; the legendary Nibelungs came this way; and here, too, passed the Celts, Charlemagne's Franks, Frederick Barbarossa's Crusaders and finally Napoleon. In the opposite direction, going upstream, Attila led his Huns towards France and the Avars and Hungarians pressed into western Europe. Great battles which decided the fate of Europe have been fought on the banks of the Danube: twice the West withstood Turkish assaults at Vienna, and at Aspern (now within the city limits of Vienna) Napoleon suffered his first defeat in 1809. The Danube and the regions along its banks have become threatened by attack from chemical waste and by the power stations which affect the water-balance. As a result, in recent years the idea of making the area below Vienna a protected national park has attracted considerable support; however, the problem of finance is as yet unsolved. Between the German frontier at Passau and the Upper Austrian town of Linz the Danube describes a series of great loops in the forest-fringed valley between the Mühlviertel to the north and the Innviertel to the south. Below Linz lies the Strudengau, a wooded defile between Ardagger and Ybbs, and beyond this, extending to Melk, stretches the Nibelungengau, with the conspicuous pilgrimage church of Maria Taferl. The best-known stretch is perhaps the Wachau, with a series of ancient little towns between Melk and Krems. Just beyond this, through the Tullner Basin, lies Vienna, and the low-lying area which extends eastward to Hainburg and Bratislava (the Czech Republic) begins to take on the aspect of the Hungarian puszta.

In shadows deep, where whispers wend,
There lies a figure, her presence penned.
Madame Noir, with eyes so dark,
Her essence veiled, a mysterious spark.
In the dance of night, she takes her flight,
A silhouette against the fading light.
With grace she moves, in silence adorned,
A mistress of secrets, her mysteries adorned.
Her lips, a crimson hue of night's embrace,
Her laughter echoes in the quiet space.
In veils of mystery, she finds her delight,
A riddle unsolved, in the depths of night.
Madame Noir, a phantom in the gloom,
A haunting melody, a whispered tune.
In the realm of shadows, she reigns supreme,
A enigmatic enigma, in the moon's soft gleam.

Night shot of Pinchin Street taken in 2018. On the 10th of September 1889 a dismembered torso was found in one of the arches on this street by PC William Pennett. The arch in question is the one with the graffiti on it that says CCT Is Useless. Can't tell you when they were sealed up. This unidentified woman was one of the set of unsolved murders in the East End of London collectively referred to as The Whitechapel Murders, but was not considered a victim of Jack the Ripper.
Before I took this shot, I was further down the street wanting to get a shot looking in the direction I am standing, but a couple of seedy people told me to get the fuck away. I knew better than to start an argument with some dangerous thugs, so I walked away.
There is still an unsettling atmosphere about streets like this, especially at night & when it is quiet.

When I am out hiking I always do like I do in my life; I look back.
The pain, the unwanted incidents, the unsolved matters - it's all there in the back.
When I take them out into the light, into my consciousness - something happens; the pain disappears and the problems become tiny incidents and you may even forgive.
So, lol, a bit of blah blah today too, I looked back because I noticed the light was ethereal, and this is what I saw 🙏

this is a very rare occasion when all 5 members of the "Tombstone Five" have been dug up at the same time & are gettin together for a one night stand.....well they might all drop to bits but here's hoping
They'll perform their old classic "Oh yeah we're feeling all dug up...hey hey" & a couple of other big hits such as
"Your Love is Just Killin Me Babe"......"Shake Rattle & Roll" & their cover version of "Monster Mash"
Funnily enough it was a graveyard smash for them because they all dropped dead soon after the release.....the case is still unsolved but the Coroner recorded a verdict of death by monster or monsters unknown.........
I should mention the guy at the top left of the picture wearing a crown is just passing by & not in the group

Words are the worst way to say what I have to say, but sometimes you can't play how you want to play to show it well. And this is one splinter of a sentence, both a pain and a pleasure to try to expel. But I have to tell about the years of influence and artless advice that can still only escape in a struggling, stilted excuse for a smile. And when you're parked over on the wrong side of nowhere no amount off nothing is going to make it worthwhile. A touch, subdived, rinsed, and sold, before the hands have a chance to get cold, as an eyelash pries an hour from the schedules of the uninvolved. And your sills so-called insulation can only sigh at December Sundays, unsolved. So like the transportation of the suns, you must hold steady to the ones who light your mornings, nights, and aftermoons. And if you should grow angry with the pace of chance, don't be afraid to make some plans for December Sundays soon. Today you missed her getting up once again. Well boy, you've got to listen to me-promise her you'll rise this day next year from this very bed.
…Così come il movimento del sole, devi tenere stretto a te chi t’illumina le tue mattine, le notti, i pomeriggi. Se cresce in te la rabbia ad un passo da un’opportunità non aver paura di fare progetti per una domenica di dicembre . oggi l’hai persa rialzati ancora una volta. Bene ragazzo, devi ascoltarmi promettile che illuminerai da ora gli anni prossimi da questi anni orrendi
This a view of stones from around Coldingham Priory now within the bounds of the parish church of Coldingham which is part of the Church of Scotland. The stones gathered with the 2009 date stone are a marvellous collection of head scratchers and bright lighting up solved and dark dismal unsolved moments with consideration of curious potential galore. Such odd stones are quite often reused in secondary service and then further reused over and again with adjustments to fit their next desired placement. Here the stones are fantastically arranged into a fully fabulous collection. Details of the Priory are linked below. It is just in land from Coldingham Sands and St Abbs. As Above is the darkening sky and So Bellow is the shadow darkened hollow of a suitable looking sounding stone.
These ruins are next to New Asgard from Marvel films including Thor enjoying a new place by the sea.

A lonely lighthouse casts a light over the ocean amongst the scattered isles once inhabited by tiny folk. Magellan passed through here, it is said, but the mysteries of these lands remain unsolved.
in the morning snow
Little flakes of snow fell
On the highway that day;
As perfect white ash
That could turn back into old flames
You could see the subtle lights prevail
Of all the little people driving home.
Human in metal on stone.
Born of glass.
The air was coloured bitter blue
You could taste it almost
Clinging to the crimson cracks that decorate
Your unsolved bottom lip
It is winter
We are winter
Foals Far away from friendly fires
Everything is all obscured
The masquerade is blurred
We are lonely yet still pretty.
There are these figurines diminished
Far away
Distant
Rendered inhuman
Painted in as if we are only here
To sell a Christmas card.
They are just rumours now.
And you just keep on walking
Falling
Deeper
In these endless roads of white.
You are just a head now on legs.
Probably porcelain.
But you make such pretty footsteps
And they seem to follow you forever
Walking so quietly back home
Jungfrau Park is an amusement park located near Interlaken, Switzerland. It opened as the Mystery Park in 2003, and closed in November 2006 due to financial difficulties and low turnout. The park was designed by Erich von Däniken, and consisted of seven pavilions, each of which explored one of several great "mysteries" of the world. Von Däniken opened the theme park to present his interpretations of unsolved mysteries involving extraterrestrial life that he believes took place around the world.
...dopo le delusioni, i rimorsi e le parole cattive, i brutti sogni che si sono avverati, lasciando da parte quelli che sono rimasti sotto le coperte, dopo tutto quello che di terribile ci è stato fatto, non abbiamo più nulla da dirci. ma che importa, se ancor ci possediamo l'un l'altro?allora, addio.

Who spotted whom first would always be the unsolved mystery though the Toro King would profess it to be him with the sharper senses to notice such a man that drew near as though he had some business within the Toro King's domain. He was not a violent beast by nature, however the Toro King was more than ready to disspell any illusions, or delusions, this new intruder would bring. Golden horns gifted by Dionysus, he angles them in such a way that the points leave no doubt as to his skill to aim with deadly intent. With a slight tilt of his head, the gold and rubies shimmer with light that he directs at the intruder's face, those eyes, as the only warning the Toro King was feeling generous to give.

Scientists pinpoint the exact moment in evolutionary time when mammals became warm-blooded
News
By Ben Turner published July 20, 2022
And it happened much more quickly than scientists expected.

Scientists have pinpointed the moment in time our earliest ancestors evolved to be warm-blooded, and it happened much later and far more quickly than the researchers expected.
The discovery, made by studying the minuscule tubes of the inner ear, places the evolution of mammalian warm-bloodedness at around 233 million years ago — 19 million years later than scientists previously thought.
These semicircular canals are filled with a viscous fluid, called endolymph, that tickles tiny hairs lining the canals as the fluid sloshes around. These hairs transmit messages to the brain, giving it instructions for how to keep the body balanced. Like some fluids, the honey-like endolymph gets runnier the hotter it is, requiring the semicircular canals to change their shape so the fluid can still do its job. In ectothermic, or cold-blooded, animals, this ear fluid is colder and thus behaves more like molasses and needs wider spaces in which to flow. But for endothermic, or warm-blooded, animals, the fluid is more watery and small spaces suffice.
This temperature-based property makes tiny, semicircular canals a perfect place to spot the moment when ancient mammals' cold blood turned hot, researchers wrote in a paper published July 20 in the journal Nature.
"Until now, semicircular canals were generally used to predict locomotion of fossil organisms," study co-lead author Romain David, an evolutionary anthropologist at the Natural History Museum in London, said in a statement. "However, by carefully looking at their biomechanics, we figured that we could also use them to infer body temperatures.
"This is because, like honey, the fluid contained inside semicircular canals gets less viscous [syrupy] when temperature increases, impacting function," David explained. "Hence, during the transition to endothermy, morphological adaptations were required to keep optimal performances, and we could track them in mammal ancestors."
To discover the time of this evolutionary change, researchers measured three inner ear canal samples from 341 animals — 243 living species and 64 extinct species — spanning the animal kingdom. The analysis revealed that the 54 extinct mammals included in the study developed the narrow inner ear canal structures suitable for warm-blooded animals 233 million years ago.
Before this study, scientists thought mammals inherited warm-bloodedness from the cynodonts — a group of scaly, rat-like lizards that gave rise to all living mammals — that were thought to have evolved warm-bloodedness around the time of their first appearance 252 million years ago. However, the new findings suggest that mammals diverged from their early ancestors more markedly than expected.
And this drastic change happened surprisingly fast. Heat-friendly ear canals didn't just appear later in the fossil record than the scientists expected. It happened far more rapidly, too — popping up around the same time the earliest mammals began evolving whiskers, fur and specialized backbones.
"Contrary to current scientific thinking, our paper surprisingly demonstrates that the acquisition of endothermy seem[s] to have occurred very quickly in geological terms, in less than a million years," study co-lead author Ricardo Araújo, a geologist at the University of Lisbon in Portugal, said in the statement. "It was not a gradual, slow process over tens of millions of years as previously thought, but maybe was attained quickly when triggered by novel mammal-like metabolic pathways and origin of fur."
Follow-up studies will need to confirm the findings via other means, but the researchers said they are excited that their work will help to answer one of the longest-standing questions about the evolution of mammals.
"The origin of mammalian endothermy is one of the great unsolved mysteries of paleontology," study senior author Kenneth Angielczyk, the Field Museum's MacArthur curator of paleomammalogy, said in the statement. "Many different approaches have been used to try to predict when it first evolved, but they have often given vague or conflicting results. We think our method shows real promise because it has been validated using a very large number of modern species, and it suggests that endothermy evolved at a time when many other features of the mammalian body plan were also falling into place."

The old St-George-In-The-East Mortuary is where the bodies of Elizabeth Stride & the Pinchin Street Torso were found. the latter is part of the series of unsolved murders in the East End of London collectively referred to as the Whitechapel Murders, but only five are considered to have been the work of an unknown killer that became known as Jack the Ripper.
It became a nature study in 1904, & it closed in the second world war. It has been dilapidated since.
Thought it would be interesting to use this very wide lens with part of the frame really up close to one of the old tombstones there.

To me EXPLORE was like a Unicorn full of mystery remaining on of the great "unsolved mysteries" of Flickr. Like on an adventure to seek Bigfoot or a Giant Panda. This seemed so out of reach for me. I'm a simple girl who was given my first Fisher Price 110mm camera at the age of five and I have been snapping away ever since. From the bottom of my heart thank you for the delightful comments, support and favs.
I was kindly notified by the explore group. To me it's like unicorns and aliens you know they exist, heard all the stories but never actually see it.
️♂️Tread carefully, Detective. The Cold Case Boots by 718 have seen more than their fair share of unsolved mysteries. With every step, they whisper secrets from the crime scenes they’ve walked through. Every scuff tells a story, every step leaves a question. Are they part of the evidence or the escape plan?🏃♂️

Eagle @ Millennium Park on tree by nest with the smallest baby crying out for food, I think. This eagle was on one tree, the largest fledgling was on another tree close by, and the smallest was in the nest. If I had to wait to get fed this long, I would be crying out too! I wonder if they are waiting for the other adult eagle to show up and all eat together. A mystery unsolved, I had to leave, getting dark out.
On September 10 1889, an unidentified female torso was found in this railway arch in the middle of this shot.
Sadly, the identity of this woman was not discovered, & although they are not considered a victim of Jack the Ripper, they are still one of the eleven unsolved murders in the East End of London that the police have in the files titled The Whitechapel Murders.
I am not sure when these arches were bricked up.

. . . A Day at the Flower Shop . . .
Surrounded by blooms, her mind wanders beyond bouquets.
Forget just the butterflies, she muses. Love, like nurturing these flowers, demands a gardener's touch. A shared vision, a kind heart to weather storms, and the courage to prune mistakes for growth. Passion ignites, but these qualities build a love that blooms eternally.
ღ.-:**★**:-.ღ.-:**★**:-.ღ.-:**★**:-ღ
Relationships, huh? Most people think all it takes is passion to stay together. Love conquers all, right?
Wrong. Turns out, lasting relationships need more than just fireworks. People who rock at relationships, the ones with tons of experience, know it's all about 'management and choosing the right person.'
Think of it like running a business. To succeed, you need four key ingredients:
1. Vision:
High-quality people have a natural vision for their relationships. They're smart enough to know 'vision isn't the same as a plan.' A vision is the big picture, the "why" behind everything. Plans are just the steps to get there. Don't confuse the two!
Low-quality folks? They think every plan is the vision itself. They 'believe the plan is the vision,' they believe vision 'needs' plans, they hammer out every detail while forgetting the bigger dream.
Now you can tell the difference between people who have a lot of plans but no vision, and people who have vision without any need of a plan.
2. Heart:
High-quality people are 'naturally equipped' with the good stuff:
☑ Appreciation
They see the good in their partner and the relationship.
☑ Gratitude
They express thanks regularly, showing they value what they have.
☑ Gratefulness
They truly cherish the good things, not taking them for granted.
Low-quality folks? They're the opposite. They can't really appreciate, 'unable' to be grateful, even when they say thank you, it lacks true feelings and meanings. They miss the good, forget to feel thanks, and take everything for granted.
Now you can tell the difference between people who say thank you without the ability to be thankful and people who are always thankful without saying thank you.
3. Courage to admit wrongdoing:
High-quality people? They are brave enough to admit their mistakes. They fess up when they mess up. It's no big deal. They're more interested in learning and growing than clinging to being right.
Low-quality folks? They fear admitting their wrongdoing, hide their mistakes, and make excuses instead of owning them. They stubbornly look for misleading reasons to change from wrong to right, thinking that admitting a mistake is a sign of weakness, so they just let things fester.
Now you can tell the difference between people who lack the courage to face their wrongdoing and people who see wrongdoing as not a big thing to admit.
4. Willingness to correct mistakes:
High-quality people see mistakes as opportunities to improve, not personal attacks. They fix things because they want the relationship to thrive, not to prove anything.
Low-quality folks? They may see admitting mistakes as a reflection of their shortcomings, they avoid fixing things because they think it makes them look bad and violates their self-esteem. They'd rather protect their self-esteem by denying fixing, leaving problems unsolved, than risk admitting they weren't perfect.
Now you can tell the difference between people who give you overflowing attention by making tons of excuses to mislead their wrongs to right until you totally believe it's not their wrong and people who just fix it without any need for a word.
" Remember, relationships are a journey, not a destination. Choose your partner wisely, nurture the good stuff, and don't be afraid to course-correct when needed. That's the recipe for a truly fulfilling love story! 💕 "

" Love yourself first and fulfill your own needs before allowing others to fill you. Be careful not to be blinded by how they make you feel - focus on their true qualities.
A person who lacks even one of these four qualities, no matter how good they may make you feel, will ultimately end up being a waste in your life. "

Unsolved problem in physics:
Is physical information lost in black holes?
(more unsolved problems in physics)
A black hole is a geometrically defined region of spacetime exhibiting such strong gravitational effects that nothing—including particles and electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from inside it.
The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole.

Als rotierende Schwarze Löcher werden solche bezeichnet, die einen Eigendrehimpuls besitzen.
Wie alle Schwarzen Löcher verursachen auch sie, bedingt durch ihre enorme Gravitation, eine entsprechend große Veränderung der geometrischen Struktur von Raum und Zeit (siehe: Raumzeitkrümmung).
Bei einem rotierenden Schwarzen Loch nimmt die Singularität jedoch eine Kreis- oder Ringform an und reißt die Raumzeit um sich herum mit anstatt sie nur zu krümmen: Der Raum wird in der Drehrichtung des Schwarzen Lochs mitgedreht. Diese Art der Raumzeitkrümmung erscheint nicht bei einem ruhenden Schwarzen Loch, sondern tritt bei rotierenden Schwarzen Löchern sozusagen zusätzlich außerhalb des Ereignishorizonts mit der Form eines an den Polen abgeplatteten Rotationsellipsoids auf. Alle Objekte um ein rotierendes Schwarzes Loch werden mitgedreht, eben weil sich auch die Raumzeit selbst mitdreht. Einem zu seiner Umgebung stillstehenden Beobachter käme es so vor, als würde sich das ganze Universum um ihn herum drehen. Dieser Effekt nimmt mit der Entfernung stark ab
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzes_Loch
Ein Schwarzes Loch ist ein Objekt, dessen Gravitation so extrem stark ist, dass aus diesem Raumbereich keine Materie und kein Lichtsignal nach außen gelangen kann. Nach der Allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie verformt eine ausreichend kompakte Masse die Raumzeit so stark, dass sich ein Schwarzes Loch bildet.
Jungfrau Park is an amusement park located near Interlaken, Switzerland. It opened as the Mystery Park in 2003, and closed in November 2006 due to financial difficulties and low turnout. The park was designed by Erich von Däniken, and consisted of seven pavilions, each of which explored one of several great "mysteries" of the world. Von Däniken opened the theme park to present his interpretations of unsolved mysteries involving extraterrestrial life that he believes took place around the world.
Good morning everyone. I thought I'd share a quick pic of an odd male Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) I photographed this past Tuesday. As you can clearly see it has no crest feathers. At first I thought the crest feathers were just lying flat and not raised, but that was not the case. They were entirely missing. No bald spot either. Head was covered in feathers...just none long enough to form a crest.
Not sure if it lost them in a skirmish with another male, which didn't appear to be the case since except for the lack of crest feathers, it looked to be perfectly fine and unscathed in anyway. The other possibility is it simply never had any crest feathers, which I'm thinking is not likely. Either way, it's one of those small mysteries that will probably remain unsolved.
As for this pic...it's mainly for documentation hence the reason for the tight and square crop.
Thank you for stopping by...and I hope you're having a truly nice week.

Korsika - Cap Corse
Plage de Giottani
Cap Corse (Corsican: Capicorsu; Italian: Capo Corso), a geographical area of Corsica, is a 40 kilometres (25 mi) long peninsula located at the northern tip of the island. At the base of it is the second largest city in Corsica, Bastia. Cap Corse is also a Communauté de communes comprising 18 communes.
Numerous historians have termed Cap Corse "the Sacred Promontory" and have gone so far as to suppose the name came from a high concentration of early Christian settlements. This is a folk-etymology.
The term comes from the geographer Ptolemy, who called his first and northernmost location on Corsica the hieron achron in ancient Greek, transliterated by the Romans to sacrum promontorium. This is not the only point of land to be so-called; there were many others in the classical world, none of them Christian. The meaning is somewhat ambiguous, whether it was called that because of a temple placed there or whether as the end of the land it was sacred to the god of the sea. If the date of the Geography is taken arbitrarily to be 100 AD, and Ptolemy was working from earlier sources, a Christian association is highly unlikely. There is no evidence that Corsica was converted earlier than the 6th century AD, no evidence of any Christian communities in the area in Ptolemy's time, and the concentration of later Christian edifices is no greater than they are in any populated region of Corsica.
Ptolemy's interpretation of promontory also is not clear. It has been taken to mean the entire Cap Corse, the Pointe du Cap Corse, or some one of the small promontories on it. Sometimes it is associated with Macinaggio, but the problem remains unsolved.
There is some geographic justification for associating Ptolemy's entire tribe, the Vanacini, which are described as "more to the north", with Cap Corse, as it is a distinct geophysical environment. The Vanacini appear in a bronze tablet found in northern Corsica repeating a letter from the emperor Vespasian to "the magistrates and senators of the Vanacini" written about 72 AD, in Ptolemy's time. The Vanacini had bought some land from Colonia Mariana, a Roman colony in the vicinity of Bastia, and complained about the borders fixed by the procurator from whom they had bought it. The emperor on receiving the complaint appointed another procurator to arbitrate and wrote informing the complainants. The inscription is documentary evidence of the historicity of the Vanacini.

Le Cap Corse est une péninsule d'environ 400 km2 de superficie, au nord-est de l'île de Corse. Élancée au nord vers la Ligurie, elle se rencontre à 33 km de la Capraia, à 83 km de Piombino, à 96 km de Livourne, à 160 km de Gênes et à moins de 175 km de la côte française. La pointe Nord du Cap (42° 50’ 2.34‘’ N) est située en deçà d’une ligne Est-Ouest qui passe par Toulon (43° 7’ 19.92’’ N) et même légèrement plus au Sud que l’île de Porquerolles (43° 0’ 2‘’ N), ce qui place le nord de la Corse à la même latitude que la partie la plus au sud de la France continentale (Pyrénées-Orientales, sud de Perpignan).
Dans l'Antiquité, le pays est dénommé Sacrum promuntorium. Il devient, au Moyen Âge, un territoire de seigneuries (San Colombano, Avogari, etc.). Il est partagé en cantons durant la Révolution.
« Le pays appelé le Cap-Corse a un circuit de quarante-huit à cinquante milles. Il est partagé en deux dans le sens de sa longueur par une montagne qui se prolonge du nord au midi. Les gens du pays l'appellent la Serra. C'est comme une chaîne dont la cime partage les eaux, qui vont se jeter dans la mer, les unes à l'est, les autres à l'ouest. »
— Agostino Giustiniani in Dialogo, traduction de Lucien Auguste Letteron in Histoire de la Corse - Description de la Corse – Tome I p. 7 - 1888.
Il est formé par une arête relativement élevée qui envoie en avant, à l'est et à l'ouest, des éperons et des contreforts qui délimitent des vallées parallèles où se sont installés les villages et les cultures.
« Dans le Cap-Corse, l'air est partout sain, l'eau bonne ; le vin est abondant, excellent et généralement blanc. Les vins de la côte extérieure sont plus renommés comme vins moûts ; ceux de la côte intérieure, lorsqu'ils sont clairs. La quantité de vin que l'on récolte dans le Cap-Corse est considérable ; on y récolte encore un peu d'huile, des figues et quelques autres fruits. Le sol est rebelle aux autres cultures, surtout à celle du blé. Les habitants sont bien habillés et plus polis que les autres Corses, grâce à leurs relations commerciales et au voisinage du continent. Il y a chez eux beaucoup de simplicité et de bonne foi. Leur unique commerce est celui des vins qu'ils vont vendre en terre ferme »
— Mgr Agostino Giustiniani in Dialogo, traduction de Lucien Auguste Letteron in Histoire de la Corse - Description de la Corse, Bulletin de la Société des sciences historiques & naturelles de la Corse – Tome I p. 8
Le Cap Corse est une péninsule schisteuse qui s'étend au nord d'une ligne Bastia - Saint-Florent, sur près de 40 km de long dans le sens nord-sud, et 10 à 15 km de large. La région est composée de schistes lustrés, dans lesquels dominent les schistes et quartzites amphiboliques ou pyroxéniques, avec, par places, des calcschistes micacés et des cipolins durs.
Quelques exceptions importantes apparaissent dans ce relief. Au nord du Cap, les schistes sont pénétrés par une masse de gabbros et de péridotites, d'où provient la pierre verte bien connue sous le nom de serpentine. Cette pierre d'une grande dureté forme les bosses du paysage, telles que les sommets comme l'Alticcione 1 139 mètres, les promontoires comme le Corno di Becco ou la pointe d'Agnello. De part et d'autre de cette nappe de roches vertes se trouvent deux accidents géologiques curieux. À l'ouest, presque tout le territoire de la commune d'Ersa est constitué par une couche de gneiss amphibolique, granitisé, sur lequel on retrouve les schistes lustrés ; tandis qu'à l'est, au nord et au sud de Macinaggio, le long de la côte, à Tamarone, comme à Finocchiarola, s'étalent les grès siliceux et à poudingues de l'époque Éocène, avec un lambeau triasique de cargneules et de calcaires.
La géologie très particulière du Cap Corse a donné lieu à une rareté géologique : l'amiante amphibiolique, une roche fibreuse susceptible d'être filée et tissée. Avec la première révolution industrielle, celle de la machine à vapeur, la demande d'amiante (matériau isolant et incombustible) est montée en flèche. L'amiante a été exploité industriellement à Canari dans une impressionnante carrière en gradins à ciel ouvert, de 1935 à 1965. Le site était à la fois une mine et une usine produisant un produit fini et mis en sacs. Fermée depuis 1966, la friche industrielle est diversement considérée : verrue industrielle au passé sinistre (le mésothéliome ou cancer de l'amiante sévissait parmi les ouvriers) pour les uns, c'est un lieu de visite (illégale) apprécié par d'autres, avec la mode de l'exploration urbaine.
L'orographie de la région s'explique ainsi : les schistes luisants et tendres donnent un relief doux, des versants lentement inclinés, des mamelons et des chaînes continus, telle que la crête de séparation entre Rogliano et Luri. Les bancs de cipolins dessinent des ruptures de pente et des plateaux abrupts, comme le Piano de Santarello. Les schistes amphiboliques en revanche ont des crêtes aiguës et dentelées, mais ce sont surtout les gabbros et les péridotites qui forment les plus fortes saillies, les dômes, les massifs compacts isolés au milieu des roches plus tendres.
Coucher sur le Monte Stello.
Une chaîne montagneuse, la Serra, s'étend tout le long du cap, depuis la Serra di Pignu (altitude 960 m) au sud, jusqu'au Monte di u Castellu (altitude 540 m) au nord. La Cima di e Follicie, haute de 1 324 mètres, en est le point culminant ; mais le Cap compte plus de dix autres sommets dépassant les 1 000 mètres d'altitude, dont le Monte Stello. Cette chaîne surgit des flots souvent tumultueux du Capo Bianco et de la Punta di Corno di Becco, par une levée de 333 m à la Punta de Pietra Campana et 359 m au Monte Maggiore. Elle se dirige en direction du sud-est vers la pointe de Torricella (562 m), traverser toute la péninsule et finir à la cime du Zuccarello 955 m et le défilé du Lancone.
La Serra est la ligne de partage des eaux. À l'est, la côte intérieure est baignée par la mer Tyrrhénienne et le littoral offre des paysages au relief collinaire contrastant avec les paysages aigus et abrupts de la côte extérieure baignée par la mer Méditerranée. Au nord, la côte est baignée par la mer Ligure.
Le littoral capcorsin, déchiqueté et accidenté, comprend peu de plages que l'on trouve uniquement au fond de ses anses. Le relief descend le plus souvent de façon abrupte dans la mer, et la route D80, qui fait le tour du Cap sur 110 km, de Bastia à Saint-Florent, offre un panorama de corniche. Un tiers des tours génoises, destinées à protéger la Corse d'attaques navales des Barbaresques, a été construit autour du cap.

Cap Corse (korsisch Capicorsu, italienisch Capo Corso) ist eine Halbinsel im Norden Korsikas. Sie befindet sich im Département Haute-Corse.
Die Halbinsel hat eine Länge von ca. 40 km und eine Breite von ca. 10 km. An ihrem südöstlichen Ende befindet sich die Stadt Bastia. Die höchsten Erhebungen sind Monte Alticcione (1138 m), Monte Stello (1306 m) und Cima di e Follicie (1324 m) (mit der Höhle Grotta a l'Albucciu). Nördlich des Cap Corse liegt die kleine zur Gemeinde Ersa gehörende Insel Giraglia.
Das Cap Corse ist verhältnismäßig wenig touristisch erschlossen. Es ist eine bekannte Weinregion, das Cap gibt dem Wein Muscat du Cap Corse seinen Namen.
Die korsische Schutzpatronin Julia von Korsika lebte zeitweilig in der Gegend.

"We stand on the edge of a New Frontier—the frontier of unfulfilled hopes and dreams, a frontier of unknown opportunities and beliefs in peril. Beyond that frontier are uncharted areas of science and space, unsolved problems of peace and war, unconquered problems of ignorance and prejudice, unanswered questions of poverty and surplus." - JFK
He spoke of hope, a hope for a better tomorrow, and how, no matter the odds, humankind was and still is capable of overcoming any obstacle if we work together. For the Dreamwalkers that are, and those yet to join their ranks, that is what this place, above all else, represents: Hope.
