  • A new study looked at many fossils of Essexella, and found it wasn't what it was thought to have been. And that because of how it's preserved there's a few things we can learn about the environment it came from.

    Really cool. My favorite aspect of science is that it is continually being rewritten by new evidence or better analysis of old evidence. I wish the rest of human society operated this way.

      instead, other parts of society point to the continual refinement process as proof that science is super-dumb and wrong.

      @@patreekotime4578 well yes and no. What I more meant was how Europe went through the dark ages, and yes also that victor writes the history thing. Where much of human history has been irrevocably lost due to science being destroyed and banned (i.e. library of Alexandria and a lot of early gender science was done in Germany before WW2, respectively).

    Right now I’m in the works to get the written permission to donate a fossil of what the museum and I believe is the first segmented Arthropleura found in the Appellation basin, 😮 I live in Turtle Creek Pennsylvania and the shale it’s from is Grafton limestone or could be Ames but this could be huge 😮 and I also have been finding footprints from animals from the Ames and Grafton. 😊 Carboniferous is an awesome time period

      That's super neat! I know there's fossils from NA which suggest that the early Appalachians and the mountains of northern Scotland had similar fauna (they were one range at the time to be fair) but having some from more places is always good!

    When a German word has an "a" it is very often pronounced like an "ä" and when a German word has an "ä" it is almost unfailingly pronounced like an "a". It is "Lagerstätte", not "Lagerstatte".
