Discover The Breathtaking Opal Gemstone Called ‘Rainbow Tree’ From Australia

The Boulder Opal, also known as the ‘Rainbow Tree”, is probably the most beautiful of all, and can be found in Queensland, Australia. It is the only opal that can display the entire rainbow within one stone.

Opals are created by a mixture of silicon dioxide and water. Silica is carried down into rock crevices by heavy rains, and when the water evaporates, the silica gel hardens and is deposited in the form of tiny spheres. My Dad taught me that, along with everything else gemstone, rock and mineral related. I guess that’s the benefit of have a geologist as a father.

🖤 Good Vibes 🖤

I thought there were two people in the pic.

Hyde Park

Went to the movies. There must’ve been 400 people.

Most of them were not there to see the movie, but to compete in a popcorn box and candy wrapper rustling competition. Others came to cough.

How’s your Saturday going?

NASA Selects Four Possible Missions to Study the Secrets of the Solar System

❇️ Analyzing the atmosphere of Venus
❇️ Studying volcanoes on Jupiter’s moon Io
❇️ Exploring Neptune’s icy moon Triton
❇️ Mapping the geologic history of Venus

NASA has selected four Discovery Program investigations to develop concept studies for new missions. Although they’re not official missions yet and some ultimately may not be chosen to move forward, the selections focus on compelling targets and science that are not covered by NASA’s active missions or recent selections. Final selections will be made next year.

I don't want to sound ignorant,

but if I can't understand something,

then it's stupid and I hate it. 😉 

You won’t believe the size of the Harpy Eagle

The Harpy looks downright regal with its crown of raised grey feathers, beautiful eyes, expressive face and feather collar of black and grey apart from its impressive size. This bird has the ability to reach up to 3 feet in height with a wingspan of up to 7 feet. A female Bald Eagle weighs up to 12 pounds while the female Harpy Eagle weighs between 13 and 20 pounds. Female eagles are heavier than male counterparts, typical. A male Harpy would weigh almost half the weight of the female at her heaviest... between 9 to 13 pounds.

Natural Habitat: The upper canopy of tropical lowland forests, stretching from Mexico to Brazil and northern Argentina.

Due to their immensely powerful talons, the Harpy is at the top of the food chain, they have enough strength to catch and carry small animals weighing as much as 17 pounds. Favourite meal: sloths and monkeys. Their speed can hit 50 miles per hour.

Meteorite contains the oldest material on Earth: 7-billion-year-old stardust

Representative Image: An example of a Pallasite meteorite (from the Esquel fall) on display in the Vale Inco Limited Gallery of Minerals at the Royal Ontario Museum.

Stars have life cycles. They’re born when bits of dust and gas floating through space find each other and collapse in on each other and heat up. They burn for millions to billions of years, and then they die. When they die, they pitch the particles that formed in their winds out into space, and those bits of stardust eventually form new stars, along with new planets and moons and meteorites. And in a meteorite that fell fifty years ago in Australia, scientists have now discovered stardust that formed 5 to 7 billion years ago — the oldest solid material ever found on Earth.
