This full-circle scene combines 817 images taken by the panoramic camera (Pancam) on NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity. It shows the terrain that surrounded the rover while it was stationary for four months of work during its most recent Martian winter. Opportunity's Pancam took the component images between the 2,811th Martian day, or sol, of the rover's Mars surface mission (Dec. 21, 2011) and Sol 2,947 (May 8, 2012). Opportunity spent those months on a northward sloped outcrop, "Greeley Haven," which angled the rover's solar panels toward the sun low in the northern sky during southern hemisphere winter.

THE MOUSAI (Muses) were the goddesses of music, song and dance, and the source of inspiration to poets. They were also goddesses of knowledge, who remembered all things that had come to pass. Later the Mousai were assigned specific artistic spheres: Kalliope, epic poetry; Kleio, history; Ourania, astronomy; Thaleia, comedy; Melpomene, tragedy; Polyhymnia, religious hymns; Erato, erotic poetry; Euterpe, lyric poetry; and Terpsikhore, choral song and dance. In ancient Greek vase painting the Mousai were depicted as beautiful young women with a variety of musical intruments. In later art each of the nine was assigned her own distinctive attribute.

Mechanical Behavior Of Volcanic Ash Soil Typic Hapludand Under Static And Dynamic Loading
Detalles del recurso Pertenece a : CAPTURA. Repositorio Academico de la Universidad de Chile Descripción : Andisols are often subject to landsliding and coinciding liquifaction of the existing soil structure because they dominate at steeper slopes and show often an insufficient hydraulic conductivity. Thus, soil erosion at those sites is considered as one of the major risk.

Stone Aerospace Smart Tools, Systems, and Vehicles for Exploring and Commercializing the Frontier
During the past six years Stone Aerospace has developed two generations of autonomous underwater vehicles and used them in a wide variety of hazardous environments from the original exploration and mapping of deep hydrothermal springs to sub-glacial lake exploration and science missions in Antarctica. The first of these vehicles - DEPTHX (DEep Phreatic THermal eXplorer) - was designed to test the ability of a mobile robotic platform to autonomously explore and map in 3D where no external navigation aiding is possible and where no prior map data exists, as part of NASA planetary robotic efforts directed towards enabling a future mission to the sub-surface ocean of Europa, the 4th moon of Jupiter. DEPTHX broke new ground on several fronts: First mobile robotic system of any kind to implement 3D-SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) as part of a real-time navigation engine. First autonomous robotic system to explore and map a subterranean cavern (a hydrothermal spring).El nombre genérico se refiere a un dialecto caribeño que describió por primera vez a este género. El epíteto específico se refiere al latín validus , que significa fuerte o robusto. Descripción El datilillo crece 3-7 m (9-21 pies) de altura.

Códice colombino - Biblioteca Digital Mexicana - Conaculta
Se cree que este códice permaneció en posesión de los gobernantes de Tututepec, Oaxaca, desde tiempos pre-hispánicos hasta el siglo XVIII. Tututepec es parte de la Mixteca de la Costa, en el actual estado de Oaxaca, en el sur poniente de México. Se considera el único códice pictórico prehispánico en una colección mexicana. Está dedicado a registrar las hazañas militares y políticas, y las ceremonias religiosas que enmarcaban a éstas, del reinado del señor mixteco 8-Venado, “Garra de Tigre”, así como de otro gobernante, 4 Viento, en el siglo XI d.
BBC Mundo | Ciencia | Gato clonado por encargo
Una empresa de Estados Unidos aseguró haber vendido el primer gato clonado por encargo a partir del ADN de una mascota. Se trata de Little Nicky, un gatito de nueve semanas que fue adquirido por una mujer en el estado de Texas por US$50.000. El animal original, Nicky, falleció el año pasado a los 17 años. Para reemplazarlo su dueña, Julia, decidió contratar los servicios de la compañía Genetic Savings and Clone. Mostrando su satisfacción por su nueva mascota, Julia dijo que Little Nicky es idéntico al original tanto en apariencia como en personalidad.
Porción del espacio terrestre considerada en sus relaciones con los grupos humanos que la ocupan y la ordenan con vistas a asegurar la satisfacción de sus necesidades. Noción autónoma, el territorio en geografía no es ni un sinónimo ni un substituto del término espacio. Ciertamente, si hay espacio en el territorio, éste no es considerado como un soporte neutro ni isótropo. Múltiples componentes (medioambiental, social, económico, institucional, etc.) dan especificidad et identidad a la configuración y al funcionamiento de este conjunto. Comprender un territorio es poner en evidencia las interacciones entre sus diferentes componentes y no considerarlos como capas sucesivas cuya totalidad constituiría un conjunto denominado territorio.

Geology: Plate Tectonics
Plate Tectonics is a geologic theory explaining the movements and forces in the Earth crust. It was developed during the mid 20th century, but the basic ideas were first put into words by the German geologist Alfred Wegener during the 1920s. He published the first version of his theory in 1915, and he called it Theorie der Kontinentalverschiebung (continental drift). His theories were based on the form of the continents, similarities in fossils and contemporary life on different continents, and much more. However, the theory lacked two basic parts: an explanation for the motor of the drift, and a single impressive circumstantial evidence.Secret Worlds: The Universe Within View the Milky Way at 10 million light years from the Earth. Then move through space towards the Earth in successive orders of magnitude until you reach a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida. After that, begin to move from the actual size of a leaf into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally, into the subatomic universe of electrons and protons. Once the tutorial has completely downloaded, a set of the arrows will appear that allow the user to increase or decrease the view magnitude in Manual mode.
